A source descriptor is proposed which is proportional to power and involves both the free velocity and the source mobility at the contact point. The measurement methods for the free velocity and the source mobility for three degrees of freedom are presented and the estimation of the source descriptor is demonstrated. A comparison of force excitation source descriptors and moment excitation source descriptors has been made and the results indicate that both force descriptor and moment descriptor decrease with increased frequency but the moment descriptor decreases more slowly. Moment induced emission may predominate at high frequencies.展开更多
