Constrained least-squares and maximum-likelihood calibration of absorption coefficients in reverberation time equations

open access: yesActa Acustica
Calibration of material properties in room acoustics simulations is essential to producing realistic results. However, the number of available algorithms for calibrating room acoustics models remain limited. This work presents two methods for calibrating

Ultrabroadband sound control with deep-subwavelength plasmacoustic metalayers

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Controlling audible sound requires inherently broadband and subwavelength acoustic solutions, which are to date, crucially missing. This includes current noise absorption methods, such as porous materials or acoustic resonators, which are typically ...

Acoustic Coatings—A Discreet Way to Control Acoustic Environment

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2021
Acoustic comfort is directly related to enhanced well-being and performance of people. A typical challenge faced by architects and acousticians is to achieve adequate acoustics while maintaining the aesthetics of the space and reducing the visual aspects

Characterization of acoustic materials at arbitrary incidence angle using sound field synthesis

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2022
Standardized methods for measuring sound absorption such as the impedance tube and reverberation chamber methods are limited to normal or diffuse incidence, respectively.

Utilization and Study of Raw Groundnut Shell as a Source of Sound Absorbing Material

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
Natural biodegradable materials have the potential of an alternative traditional sound-absorbing material. These materials have the advantages of low cost, light in weight, easily available, eco-friendly, and nonpolluting.

Study of Low-Frequency Sound Absorption Based on Negative Stiffness Membrane Structure

open access: yesSymmetry, 2022
The system stiffness of a negative stiffness membrane structure is widely investigated in metamaterial research, and some special performances have been achieved. While for acoustics, low-frequency absorption still remains a big issue, so in this work, a

An Energy Model for the Calculation of Room Acoustic Parameters in Rectangular Rooms with Absorbent Ceilings

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The most common acoustical treatment of public rooms, such as schools, offices, and healthcare premises, is a suspended absorbent ceiling. The non-uniform distribution of the absorbent material, as well as the influence of sound-scattering objects such ...

Modeling musician diffraction and absorption for artificially excited clarinet directivity measurements

open access: yesProceedings of meetings on acoustics, 2022
Directivity measurements of musical instruments have many applications in musical, audio, and architectural acoustics. Typical measurement methods include artificially excited instruments and instruments played by live musicians. While recent advances in

Acoustic Absorption and Dynamic Viscosity in Polymers [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1966
We have obtained results that show that acoustic absorption in linear polysiloxanes varies with viscosity and frequency in a unique manner. At any constant temperature, a significant relaxation is found, with a broad spectrum of relaxation frequencies.
