EN The basic parameter of materials used in constructional solutions of anti-noise protection, is sound insulation, which can be determined in laboratory conditions and also using theoretical models. The use of numerical methods in the form of the Finite Element Method to calculate the mechanical impedance of a baffle and then the sound insulation of homogeneous baffles was presented in the article. A 1 mm thick steel plate with a square, rectangular and round shape was analyzed. The boundary conditions for simply supported and clamped plate were taken into account in the numerical calculations. The results of the calculations were compared to both the commonly used the mass law and to the experimental tests. These analyzes will be the starting point for analyzes of multi-layer baffles, for which it is no longer possible to apply the mass law.
