Hi;
A long time ago I got a degree in laser electro-optics. Lot's of heavy
duty math and physics... and wave theory. As far as behavior, a light wave
and a sound wave behave exactly the same way. An energy wave is an energy
wave, the only difference being in frequency, size, intensity, etc... to
make a very long story short, what I'm saying is that the math that goes on
inside of a reso, with the different shaped holes and chambers, materials,
different sound levels, pitches, etc.. could easily fill several volumes.
If you expand it out all the way it's quite a subject that could challenge a
PhD.

Per Larry B-
Good call, now we think about not only the open area of a cover plate (why
does it cover so much up at the bottom of the plate near the tail piece),
but, the density of it, too, again, just like the density of the tail piece
. . . . coupled with the movement of air, like the sounewell issues, baffled
issues . . . .
Man, it's comin back to the 'SCIENCE' it is, n the acoustic math of such
sound and such . . . . . .
Still, real intriguing . . . engineers will rule the world, if they already
don't . . . ;-) N I'm thinkin, in here, they do . . ;-)
