Angle-Dependent Absorption of Sound on Porous Materials

open access: yesAcoustics, 2020
Sound-absorbing materials are usually measured in a reverberation chamber (diffuse field condition) or in an impedance tube (normal sound incidence). In this paper, we show how angle-dependent absorption coefficients could be measured in a factory-type ...

Predicting and auralizing acoustics in classrooms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Although classrooms have fairly simple geometries, this type of room is known to cause problems when trying to predict their acoustics using room acoustics computer modeling.

Sound Absorption of Hemp Fibers (Cannabis Sativa L.) Based Nonwoven Fabrics and Composites: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
Compared to the commonly used synthetic fibrous materials, natural fiber represents an eco-friendly solution in various engineering fields. Noise control is an important application of natural fibers due to the unique acoustic characteristics. Studies on

Sound absorption of acoustic resonators with oblique perforations [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Physics Letters, 2020
Low-frequency airborne noise reduction is an issue of major concern in most practical cases due to the limiting space constraints. The applicability of acoustic resonators that not only work in this frequency range but can also be tuned is of great interest in many noise control applications such as muffler devices, noise barriers, or building ...

Issues for computer modelling of room acoustics in non-concert hall settings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The basic principle of common room acoustics computer models is the energy-based geometrical room acoustics theory. The energy-based calculation relies on the averaging effect provided when there are many reflections from many different directions, which

Absorption of surface acoustic waves by graphene [PDF]

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2011
We present a theoretical study on interactions of electrons in graphene with surface acoustic waves (SAWs). We find that owing to momentum and energy conservation laws, the electronic transition accompanied by the SAW absorption cannot be achieved via inter-band transition channels in graphene. For graphene, strong absorption of SAWs can be observed in

Subjective Effects of Sound Absorption and Investigation of Reverberation Times in Modern Japanese Dwellings

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
This study aimed to reveal the influence of sound absorption in general dwellings on the subjective evaluation of acoustics. First, a subjective experiment was conducted using a full-scale room model. The results indicate that the feelings of silence and

Efficient Synthesis of Room Acoustics via Scattering Delay Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
An acoustic reverberator consisting of a network of delay lines connected via scattering junctions is proposed. All parameters of the reverberator are derived from physical properties of the enclosure it simulates. It allows for simulation of unequal and

Acoustic Characterization of Sugarcane Bagasse Particleboard Panels (Saccharum officinarum L) [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials Research, 2015
The use of sugarcane bagasse minimizes the environmental impact and contributes to the creation of a new product with low density, good sound absorption capacity and can improve the acoustic conditions of buildings.
