Modal Analysis of a “Tongue Drum”

Jonathan South Modelling & Simulations December 11, 2019

[EDIT]: Updated to a later version of MATLAB (2019a), so code has been updated to suit. Also, see the follow up for time domain simulations! We’ve had a look at using finite element analysis to solve the wave equation in 2D geometries to find room modes and resonances (here), so the next step up is

Simple Room Resonance Analysis

Jonathan South Modelling & Simulations, Room Acoustics September 1, 2018

Lets put some theory to the test by finding the room resonances of simple (and maybe not so simple) 2D polygonal rooms using computational methods. I’ll explain the code, and provide a file for download as well. The Problem To find room resonances, we need to solve the Helmholtz Eigenvalue problem (see here for why)
