The Structural Acoustics and Vibrations Technical Committee (TCSA) includes scientific study of vibrating structures, excited using either elastic or acoustic waves, and radiated acoustic fields from those structures. The committee members study a diverse range of physics relating to these basic phenomena, from damping and isolation, to active control, to modal response and a variety of techniques are used, including numerical modeling, analytical techniques, and experimental measurements. Due to the wide range of applications in which vibrating structures are found, TCSA is multidisciplinary, with many of our meeting sessions co-chaired across a wide range of complimentary TCs. Additionally, research fields span a range of disciplines in their practice, including industry, academia. and government. This talk will provide a brief overview into TCSA including historical highlights and future directions as well as summaries of some of the recent special sessions presented at Acoustical Society meetings.
