Acoustical Modeling in Architectural Acoustics [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1965 It is imperative to investigate the acoustical properties of roms with the aid of models prior to construction. Two sound sources have been developed to facilitate these investigations. An air jet utilizing four intersection jets provides a nondirectional random noise, over a frequency range of 2400 cps to over 100 kcps for the study of the steady ...

Education in architectural acoustics [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1975 From everyday contact with the architectural profession, we see clearly that few practicing architects really understand enough about acoustics to apply it effectively in architectural and urban design. This shortcoming can be attributed largely to the lack of acoustics training in architecture schools.

Tunable Helmholtz Resonators Using Multiple Necks [PDF]
Micromachines, 2023 One of the uses of Helmholtz resonators is as sound absorbers for room acoustic applications, especially for the low frequency range. Their efficiency is centered around their resonance frequency which mainly depends on elements of their geometry such as

Architectural acoustics in America to 1930 [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1976 The beginning of architectural acoustics as an engineering science began with Joseph Henry when he was requested by Congress to design a new lecture hall for the Smithsonian Institution in Washington. Henry's preliminary investigations led him to the discovery of what is now known as the “precedence effect,” setting limits on the permissible time lags ...

Model Techniques in Architectural Acoustics [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1969 Sound sources, microphones, detection, and display are described for the modeling methods for both the steady-state and transient types of testing. The methods have been refined for excellent precision for determining diffracted sound levels around complicated building structures, and for studying echograms within proposed auditorium designs so as to ...
