Abstract

This paper deals with the wave transmission through a vertical slotted wall. In an experimental study the transmission coefficient has been investigated as a function of the shape of the wall elements (rectangular shape and H-beam shape), of the ratio of solid wall to total wall length (wall-element ratio) and of the wave approach direction. The test results for a wave direction perpendicular to the wall are compared with previous investigations and theoretical derivations. For an oblique wave approach the test results are described by a semi-empirical formula. This formula, combined with a theoretical solution for perpendicular wave approach is used to describe the transmission coefficient for any angle of wave approach.
