Advances in Architectural Acoustics [PDF]

open access: green, 2022
Satisfactory acoustics is crucial for the ability of spaces such as auditoriums and lecture rooms to perform their primary function. The acoustics of dwellings and offices greatly affects the quality of our life, since we are all consciously or ...

Acoustical Modeling in Architectural Acoustics [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe 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 ...

An Archaeoacoustics Analysis of Cistercian Architecture: The Case of the Beaulieu Abbey [PDF]

open access: yesAcoustics, 2021
The Cistercian order is of acoustic interest because previous research has hypothesized that Cistercian architectural structures were designed for longer reverberation times in order to reinforce Gregorian chants.

Tunable Helmholtz Resonators Using Multiple Necks [PDF]

open access: yesMicromachines, 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

Education in architectural acoustics [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe 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.

Ultrathin Acoustic Metasurface-Based Schroeder Diffuser [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review X, 2017
“Schroeder diffuser” is a classical design, proposed over 40 years ago, for artificially creating optimal and predictable sound diffuse reflection. It has been widely adopted in architectural acoustics, and it has also shown substantial potential in ...

A low-frequency multiple-band sound insulator without blocking ventilation along a pipe [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
It is challenging to insulate sound transmission in low frequency-bands without blocking the air flow in a pipe. In this work, a small and light membrane-based cubic sound insulator is created to block acoustic waves in multiple low frequency-bands from ...

The acoustic designer: Joining soundscape and architectural acoustics in architectural design education [PDF]

open access: yesBuilding Acoustics, 2019
This article discusses the integration of acoustic design approaches into architectural design education settings. Solving architectural acoustic problems has been for centuries one of the primary aims of theories and experiments in acoustics.
