Abstract

A window pane fixed to an automobile via a peripheral joint forms at least a part of a wall defining a cabin of the vehicle. The window pane, at the peripheral joint, is constructed so as to eliminate at least one mode of acoustic radiance from the pane to a cavity defined by the cabin when the pane is excited by an acoustic field.
