iAbstract This thesis presents a study of the vibrational behaviour of the violin top plate and explores the possibility of using composite materials as a substitute for traditional wood in making top plates. Numerical simulations and experimental tests are compared to validate the results. The two most popular methods for numerical and experimental vibrational analysis, the Finite Element Method (FEM) and Experimental Modal Analysis are used, respectively. The vibrational behaviour of a spruce top plate is first studied by the two methods. The results show high coherence. Then the same modeling and testing techniques are applied on two composite plates. Results show that the vibrational behaviour of composite plates differs significantly f...
