Experimental and Analytical Power Flow in Beams Using a Scanning Laser Doppler Vibrometer

An experimental spatial power-flow (ESPF) method is presented. This method provides a spatially continuous model of the power-flow vector field derived from experimental measurements. The power-flow vector field clearly indicates locations of energy sources and sinks as well as paths of energy trans...
