title = "Eigenmode statistic and power variances in randomly shaped membranes",
abstract = "The eigenmodes and eigenfrequencies of finite differenced membranes with rough boundaries are obtained numerically. Such systems are approximations to reverberation rooms. The statistics of the eigenfrequencies are found to be identical to those of the Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble (GOE) of random matrices. The Wigner conjecture that the modes may be understood to be uncorrelated random superpositions of plane waves with no significant inter-modal correlations is also corroborated. The consequences of these eigen-statistics upon the statistics of responses are discussed.",
