Abstract In the present work, a wedge structure made of absorbing panels has been analyzed by making use of the matrizant analysis with the help of the Boundary-Condition-Transfer (BCT) algorithm. The rectangular panel wedge, as it is called in this manuscript, is simple in geometry. The theoretical model, based on the plane wave acoustical coupling between multiple interacting ducts of variable cross sectional area, is applied to predict the pressure reflection coefficient of the present wedge configuration. Bulk reaction and hence wave propagation in the wedge material has been assumed in the proposed model. An asymptotic More >
