CAD Tools and Computing in Architectural and Urban Acoustics [PDF]

Buildings, 2021
Contemporary architectural and urban planning aims at optimal development of the environment, including in terms of acoustics. As such, support with computer-aided design (CAD) tools is, nowadays, obligatory. The authors present investigation outcomes of

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

Acustica e tipologia in architettura - Acoustics and typology in architecture

Rivista Italiana di Acustica, 2017
L’articolo pone in relazione l’acustica e la matrice tipologica dell’architettura. Nonostante spesso si sostenga che la forma degli ambienti dedicati all’ascolto nasca come risposta a determinati requisiti acustici, la riflessione porta a concludere che ...

Bayesian estimations of dissipation, sound speed, and microphone positions in impedance tubes [PDF]

JASA Express Letters, 2022
Sound speed, microphone positions, and tube wall dissipation are critical parameters for absorption and impedance measurements using the transfer-function method in an impedance tube. This work applies a Bayesian method, based on a reflection coefficient

The evolution of the multidisciplinary concept of audience space

Проект 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.

Computer Modeling of Barrel-Vaulted Sanctuary Exhibiting Flutter Echo with Comparison to Measurements

Acoustics, 2020
Computer modeling in acoustics allows for the prediction of acoustical defects and the evaluation of potential remediations. In this article, computer modeling is applied to the case of a barrel-vaulted sanctuary whose architectural design and ...
