Optimizing acoustic design for dual-function concert and speech halls [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
The acoustic design of multipurpose halls requires a careful balance between speech intelligibility and music clarity, necessitating precise control of reverberation time (RT), sound distribution, and clarity.

Instantaneous and time-averaged intensity flow measurements in scale models [PDF]

open access: yesJASA Express Letters, 2023
Current methods of representing energy flows in rooms have been limited to stationary pressure contour maps or intensity vectors derived from finite-element modeling (FEM) software.

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

open access: yesJASA 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

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.

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

open access: yesAcoustics, 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 ...

CAD Tools and Computing in Architectural and Urban Acoustics

open access: yesBuildings, 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

Boundary admittance estimation for wave-based acoustic simulations using Bayesian inference [PDF]

open access: yesJASA Express Letters, 2022
Acoustic surface admittance/impedance at domain boundaries is essential for wave-based acoustic simulations. This work applies two levels of Bayesian inference to estimate the order and the parameter values of the multipole admittance model.

Investigating the influence of seating area design and enclosure on the seat-dip effect using scale model measurements

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2020
The low-frequency attenuation in the direct sound due to the concert hall seats, i.e., the seat-dip effect, is studied with the help of a scale model comprising an adjustable seating area and an enclosed box.
