Abstract
The generation of sound near an infinite compliant wall is studied, with account taken of a uniform mean flow. Stable and unstable configurations are looked at. It is shown that a possible influence of the wall on the sound generation occurs only via a modification of the turbulence if hydrodynamic non-linearities are responsible for the levelling-off of the instabilities. Then no fundamentally more efficient sound sources are found. An increase of the radiated sound may be possible because of the mirror sources and because of their possibly reduced compactness.
