Effects of Finishing of Violin Plate on Its Adsorption and Vibration Modes

바이올린 플레이트의 도장처리(塗裝處理)가 흡습성(吸濕性)과 진동모드에 미치는 영향(影響)

This study was carried out to compare vibrational properties and adsorption among shellac, cashew finished plate and untreated plate of Sitka spruce(Picea sitchensis Carr). By the method of statistical regression modeling, the fundamental resonance frequency of finished plate was higher than that of untreated plate. The fundamental resonance frequency of cashew finished plate was higher than that of shellac finished plate. By the method of modal analysis, mode frequency ratio of cashew finished plate was higher than that of shellac finished plate. Amounts of adsorption of finished plate was lower than that of untreated plate, and amount of adsorption of cashew finished plate was lower than that of shellac finished plate. It was clarified that the vibrational properties and adsorption of finished plate were superior to those of untreated plate. The vibrational properties and adsorption of cashew finished plate was superior to those of shellac finished plate.
