When playing the clarinet, opening the register hole allows for a transition from the first to the second register, producing a twelfth interval. On an artificial player system, the blowing pressure range where the second register remains…
Double-wall cylindrical shells are widely used in applications where resistance to acoustic shock loading is critical. While the transient vibroacoustic behavior of single-walled shells has been extensively investigated, extending these…
