This paper presents results of numerical simulations on reduction of sound pressure radiated from a square plate using different types of piezo actuators. For this purpose a FEM model was developed using ANSYS software with said steel plate with a hemisphere of air on one side of the plate. There are two criteria by which the reduction is measured: minimising vibrations of plate area and minimising sound pressure on a half sphere surrounding the plate. Changes in the results for both the radiated sound pressure and plate vibration are discussed.
