During the advent of active structural acoustic control, attempts were made to target and control structural vibration mode shapes to reduce radiated sound power. In the late eighties and early nineties work on acoustic radiation mode shapes developed an alternative way to target structural acoustic radiation. By attempting to control the radiation mode shapes, contributing structural modes could be more easily targeted. Radiation mode shapes have been examined previously for rectangular plates. The method has been extended to demonstrate radiation mode shapes of circular plates and cylindrical shells. Certain spatial derivatives of plate vibration have been found to be highly correlated with the most efficiently radiating radiation mode shapes at low frequencies. A weighted sum of these spatial derivatives is proposed as a new, generalized control metric. © 2013 Acoustical Society of America.
