Conclusion • FEM / FEM with modal analysis and lumped mass representation has been used to model a simple vibroacoustic problem. • Agood representation of the mass is very essential to achieve accurate results. • Modal FEM / FEM with only small number of modes is less efficient for strong coupling. • More modes must be taken into account ( disadvantage) • Solution: Improve the numerical results by using Modal correction for diagonal system
