Topology, Geometry, Matter of Vibrating Structures Simulated with CORDIS-ANIMA Sound Synthesis Methods

International audiencePhysical modelling of musical instrument offers wide and rich possibilities for the simulations of physical phenomena. The CORDIS-ANIMA system uses this formalism for sound synthesis. The aim is to simulate of all the components of an instrument and in particular the central element of this chian, the vibrating structure. Many experiments have been driven in this way and gave interesting results regarding the topological and geometrical characteristics and beside the physical parameters of inertia stiffness and viscosity of the network that describe the structure
