Hi Eliot, I am not sure if it is of interest to you, but I have spectrograms of the sounds recorded from when I dropped a set of rods onto a floor. I have them for various lengths, materials, diameters, and drop heights. Unfortunately, no plates though - only rods (13 mm, 16 mm, and 25 mm in diameter). And I haven't made any attempts to map out the modes, relative levels of harmonics, etc. Let me know if they are of any interest. I have set the reply address of this email to my home address. I will be away from work for the next couple week, so you will probably get a quicker response by replying to that address (bck@xxxxxxxx).
