Ottoman Mosques in Albania: Building Acoustic Exploration inside Five Case Studies

open access: yesBuildings, 2021
The Ottoman mosques of the 15th and 16th centuries represent an architectural typology that has been replicated in territories out of the Middle East for as long as Islam spread its influence on other countries. This paper deals with the determination of

A Comparison between Numerical Simulation Models for the Prediction of Acoustic Behavior of Giant Reeds Shredded

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Giant reeds represent a natural fiber widely available in some areas of the world. Its use can be particularly useful as the uncontrolled growth of giant reeds can be a problem because large areas are invaded by them and the crops are damaged.

Acoustic measurements and instrumentation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1976
A few selected topics will be discussed. Each had a major influence in setting a new trend. The discussion will include: the significance of Wente's condenser microphone in freeing acoustic measurements from the constraints of contemporary microphones; the effect of Maxfield and Harrison's paper on the analysis and synthesis of acoustic devices; the ...

The Bell-Shaped Opera Houses Realised by Antonio Galli Bibiena: Acoustic Comparison between the Communal Theatre of Bologna and the Scientific Theatre of Mantua

open access: yesAcoustics, 2023
Many acoustic studies have been carried out in the Italian theatres built during the 17th and 18th centuries. Along with the development of technology, acoustic measurements become increasingly more accurate, able to capture the faithful acoustic ...

Measurement of complex acoustic intensity in an acoustic waveguide [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2013
Acoustic intensity is normally treated as a real quantity, but in recent years, many articles have appeared in which intensity is treated as a complex quantity where the real (active) part is related to local mean energy flow and the imaginary (reactive) part to local oscillatory transport of energy.

Meteorological effects on the 3D sound propagation inside an inhomogeneous forest area

open access: yesMeteorologische Zeitschrift, 2016
The influence of trees on sound propagation is currently discussed to reduce the sound exposure near transport infrastructure or industrial areas. This influence is direct due to reflection and scattering at the trees themselves as well as indirect ...
