抄録

Tapping sounds were measured for the varnished boards and the uncoated ones of Sitka spruce wood used for musical instrument soundboards, and the acoustical effect of varnishing was investigated from their sound power spectra. The Young's modulus and the internal friction were measured for these boards, and the equations for the case of a coated board were derived theoretically. From these experiments and theories, the important mechanisms were clarified. With varnishing, the sound power level decreased at low-frequencies (< 300Hz), and it increased or decreased at high-frequencies (> 3kHz) and overall. This difference in frequency characteristic variations was due to the difference in variations of Young's modulus(E_R) and internal friction (Q^<-1>_R) in the direction, R, perpendicular to the grain. The level drop at low-frequencies was due to the shifting upwards of the lowest mode frequency with increasing E_R. For wood having a low E_R value the power level increased at frequencies above about 300Hz because of the larger increase of E_R, whereas for wood having a high E_R value it decreased at high-frequencies because of the larger increase of Q^<-1>_R. The varnishing is beneficial acoustically in the former but harmful in the latter regardless of varnish thickness.
