Finite Element Simulation Application for Vibration Characteristic of Violin

Abstract:

In this paper, Finite Element Technology is applied to study the vibration state of violin sounding box using numerical simulation. By means of geometric modeling for the complicated shape of violin sounding box and Finite Element Analysis, the structural parameters of violin box, including thickness of violin plate, height and distribution and change of the shape of arch in front plate geometry, status of bass bar and sound-post etc, are investigated for their influence on vibration patterns and frequency response of violin box. Experiment is carried out for measuring the frequencies responses of violin box to verify the results of the Finite Element Analysis. This research provides a feasible way of theories for violin makers to improve the vibration characteristics of violin.
