A modal decomposition technique to analyze individual modal contributions to the sound power radiated from an externally excited structure submerged in a heavy fluid is presented. The fluid-loaded structural modes are calculated by means of a polynomial approximation and symmetric linearization of the underlying nonlinear eigenvalue problem. The eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a fluid loaded sphere with and without internal structures are presented. The modal sound power contributions using both fluid-loaded structural modes and acoustic radiation modes are presented. The results for the resistive and reactive sound power obtained from the superposition of the individual modal sound power contributions are compared to the harmonic solution of the forced problem.
