Byzantine Churches in Albania: How Geometry and Architectural Composition Influence the Acoustics
The Byzantine churches built between the 7th and the 15th centuries represent an architectural typology that has been developed along with other architectural styles.

The Acoustics of the Benevento Roman Theatre
During the Imperial Roman period, thousands of theatres were built. The theatres have three principal elements: the scene building (actor position), the orchestra and the cavea (spectator seating).

As part of a seismic monitoring project in a geothermal field, where the feasibility of re-injection and storage of produced CO2 is being investigated, a P- and S-wave seismic velocity characterisation study was carried out. The effect of axial (up to 95

Optimal Acoustic Measurements [PDF]
We consider the problem of obtaining information about an inaccessible half-space from acoustic measurements made in the accessible half-space. If the measurements are of limited precision, some scatterers will be undetectable because their scattered fields are below the precision of the measuring instrument.

Measuring acoustic habitats [PDF]
Summary Many organisms depend on sound for communication, predator/prey detection and navigation. The acoustic environment can therefore play an important role in ecosystem dynamics and evolution. A growing number of studies are documenting acoustic habitats and their influences on animal development, behaviour, physiology and spatial ecology, which ...

Acoustic Coatings—A Discreet Way to Control Acoustic Environment
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

Microphone Based Acoustic Vector Sensor for Direction Finding with Bias Removal [PDF]
The acoustic vector sensor (AVS) is used to measure the acoustic intensity, which gives the direction-ofarrival (DOA) of an acoustic source. However, while estimating the DOA from the measured acoustic intensity the finite microphone separation (d) in a ...

Dynamic Assessment of Axial Load in Tie-Rods by Means of Acoustic Measurements
Tie-rods are structural elements of crucial importance in ancient buildings to ensure structural integrity and safety, so the assessment of their effectiveness via an estimation of the axial load is of great importance.
