Abstract
The applicability of interface mobilities for structure-borne sound source characterization critically depends on the admissibility of neglecting the cross-order terms. Following on from a previous study [H.A. Bonhoff, B.A.T. Petersson, Journal of Sound and Vibration 311 (2008) 473–484], the influence of the cross-order terms is investigated for frame-like structures under the assumption of a uniform force-order distribution. Considering the complex power, the cross-order terms are significant from intermediate frequencies on upwards. At lower frequencies, the cross-order terms can come into play for cases where the in-phase motion of the structure along the interface is constrained. The frequency characteristics of the influence of cross-order terms for the zero-order source descriptor and coupling function are similar to those of the complex power. For non-zero source descriptor and coupling function orders, the quality of the equal-order approximation mainly depends on the presence of low-order cross-order interface mobilities. By analyzing the symmetry of an interface system, it is possible to predict which cross-order terms are equal to zero. The equal-order approximation manages to capture the main trends and overall characteristics and offers an acceptable estimate for engineering practice.
