Will get a chance to read your post more thoroughly tommorrow perhaps, but noted that you refer to Den Hartog again, who's involment in physics seems to be in a rather different area then the one at hand, tho of course the common thread of wave physics is there... I suggest you contact him at his email address J.P.denHartog@bk.tudelft.nl Perhaps if you put some specific questions that clearly include the fact that we are talking about piano soundboards, you might get some more information. I found that in writing to several such individuals I was met with a willingness to answer my questions. You never know till you try. I for one am glad for all you and others have written on this and related threads. Tho obviously there is a lot of side play, there is also a feast of information, opinions, and ideas to sift through and draw on. Tho I have to admit I see most sense in the views represented by Askenfelt and company which is more or less the same as Ron N's and Del's. -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F.
