For a long time i am looking for a synthetic bamboo equivalent for acoustic properties.
But so far I've not found anything similar. I am thinking, what if I engrave bamboo like pattern on carbon fiber, will it produce similar acoustic?
Can any material/sound/chem engineer help me?
- CapitalistCartr 8y agoI've worked with both materials, although not in acoustics; I don't think they'll ever sound alike. CF sounds "light" compared to bamboo, when thin, and dull when thick. I think carbon fiber instruments sound interesting, just not a match for bamboo.
- scoggs 8y agoThere would be the issue of cost when replicating the thickness of bamboo as well, I'd imagine?
- choot 8y agoDensity of CF is 1743kg/m^3 and that of bamboo is 1160 kg/m^3. Acrlyic, Nylon, Polycarbonate have similar density as Bamboo. https://newt.phys.unsw.edu.au/music/people/publications/Fletcher2005.pdf https://newt.phys.unsw.edu.au/music/people/publications/Flet...
