c6329fbGallery at the app's default 8 mm gridJeremy Magland 3 "intro": "Each section varies one property of the simulated sheet or of the excitation while everything else stays at the simulator defaults: a 12 by 18 inch, 22 gauge (0.79 mm) stainless steel sheet hanging in portrait orientation with a 3 mm bow across its width, heard 1 m in front of its center, recorded for 4 s. The clips are computed with the simulator's default numerical settings (8 mm grid), so the 'Open in simulator' links reproduce them exactly. Click a player to hear a clip. Every clip is rendered at the simulator's default playback level (+20 dB relative to 1 Pa at full scale, with the same soft clipper), so loudness differences within and between sections are the ones the model predicts, and a clip sounds as it does in the app. The numbers under each clip are the peak pressure and sound pressure level at the listener, the RMS pressure over the clip, the spectral centroid of the sound between 0.2 and 1.2 s (a measure of brightness), and fitted 60 dB decay times of a low and a high band.",

Speed sets both the loudness and the character: the contact force grows with speed, the contact shortens, and more energy reaches the high modes. In these clips the peak level rises from about 87 dB at 0.5 m/s to 109 dB at 6 m/s, and the spectral centroid from about 190 Hz to 1.6 kHz, so the sound grows brighter as well as louder.",

A heavier stick stays in contact longer, which by itself favours the low modes, but it also pushes the sheet further, and the extra energy reaches the high partials through the nonlinearity. In these clips the two effects roughly cancel between 10 and 60 g, and the 120 g stick is both the loudest and the brightest of the set. The peak contact force changes little with the mass (about 180 N at 10 g and 230 N at 120 g), because the local response of the sheet limits it.",
