Masters Theses
"The concept of the adjustable muffler is felt to be a step in the direction of easing the present tedium of constructing and testing prototype mufflers. The evaluation of such a muffler also furthers the knowledge of the interaction of acoustic elements. A review of past and present efforts in the design and evaluation of acoustic filters and filter elements is herein presented. Some consideration is given to phenomena, such as tube attenuation and transverse modes of vibration, which are encountered in muffler evaluation techniques. The characteristics of wave guides are discussed at length. The solution of the plane wave …
