Damped (complex) modes: part of the acoustic modal analysis.

Last updated

Theory

Solves the complex eigenfrequencies with the perforates, packings and, with anechoic ports, the ports: the damping ratio and quality factor of every mode. See Acoustic modal analysis: eigenfrequencies, damping, participation.
