Experimental and Numerical Studies of Violin Bridge Vibration Mechanism
A violin bridge kept in place by the pressure of the four strings has a powerful effect on the tone of the instrument. Its dynamic mechanical behaviors are investigated using finite elemental modeling and experiments in this paper. Modal and frequency response analysis of an isolated bridge are carried out. Numerical results show that the frequency responses are related to the vibration modes of the bridge. Particularly, the bridge hill is due to the bridge itself, and linked to the in-plane rocking mode of the bridge near the bridge hill peak. Three-dimensional dynamic forces exerted to the violin plates by the strings and bridge are then experimentally measured using a dynamometer. The experimental results are then analyzed and correlated to the simulation. The frequency response analysis of an isolated bridge is demonstrated to be a potential tool to study the mechanical behaviors of the violin bridge.
