Sound localisation definition in parametrically and non-parametrically decoded first-order ambisonic systems [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electronics and Telecommunications
This study assessed sound localisation definition in ambisonic systems using two-non-parametric and three parametric decoders, in a two-dimensional format. The sound samples were played back through eight loudspeakers arranged in a circle.

Historical Acoustics: Relationships between People and Sound over Time

open access: yesAcoustics, 2020
The Special Issue “Historical Acoustics: Relationships between People and Sound over Time” was the inaugural collection of the recently established journal “Acoustics (MDPI)”, so it felt appropriate to give it a focus to history ...

Spin-orbit interactions of transverse sound

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Spin-orbit acoustics is determinant to provide new perspectives and functionalities for sound manipulations. Here the authors theoretically and experimentally demonstrate acoustic spin-orbit interaction enabling chiral sound-matter interactions with ...

The evolution of the multidisciplinary concept of audience space

open access: yesПроект Байкал, 2023
In ancient Greece, architects sought to ensure that the sound of the voice reached the viewer’s ears “distinctly and pleasantly”. To do this, they turned to the theory of musical resonances and created a multidisciplinary concept of architecture.

Sustainable Acoustic Metasurfaces for Sound Control [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 2016
Sound attenuation with conventional acoustic materials is subject to the mass law and requires massive and bulky structures at low frequencies. A possible alternative solution is provided by the use of metamaterials, which are artificial materials properly engineered to obtain properties and characteristics that it is not possible to find in natural ...

Rate dependent neural responses of interaural-time-difference cues in fine-structure and envelope [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
Advancements in cochlear implants (CIs) have led to a significant increase in bilateral CI users, especially among children. Yet, most bilateral CI users do not fully achieve the intended binaural benefit due to potential limitations in signal processing

Acoustic Communication: Sound Advice from Piranhas [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2011
An elegant new study has correlated the generation of sound patterns in the red-bellied piranha (Pygocentrus nattereri) with three distinct behaviours.
