Abstract

The paper deals with an extension of previous work on the radiation properties of turbulent flow formed on compliant surfaces. The effect of simple supports is shown to be acoustically equivalent to an extended dipole system of strength equal to the support stress. The dipole radiation is reduced by a transmission factor below that radiated into a uniform environment. A particular example is worked out in detail. That example deals with the case of a single point support on an otherwise homogeneous surface excited by boundary-layer turbulence.
