English term or phrase: bending wave
Definition from Internat. Electrotechnical Commission:
transverse wave in a plate or bar, being a combination of compressional and shear wave

Example sentence(s):
  • Many types of sound waves, or acoustic modes, can be propagated in glass plates. The acoustic mode most efficiently excited by a finger touch is a bending wave. BNP Media
  • The goal of the Hybrid Acoustically Layered Foil (HALF) Foam concept was to excite bending waves within the plane of the foil to cause interparticle interactions thus increasing the transmission loss of the foam. 48th AIAA/ASME/ASCE/AHS/ASC conference
  • Bending waves are important for structure born sound. Bending waves progress in walls and plates. engineeringpage.com

ona de flexió


Definition from own experience or research:
Ona en la qual la perturbació és una deformació per flexió. Són ones transversals.

Example sentence(s):
  • En una zona de freqüències determinada entorn a la qual s’anomena freqüència de coincidència, fc , l’energia acústica incident es transmet a través dels paraments en forma d’ona de flexió, que s’acoblen amb les ones del camp acústic, produint-se una notable disminució de l’aïllament. - Faus Ingenieros
