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 ...

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.

Acoustical characterization of Taramati Baradari

open access: yesProceedings of the International Conference of Contemporary Affairs in Architecture and Urbanism-ICCAUA, 2023
India has a very rich and diverse cultural heritage and when studying from one built form to another, it can be observed that each plan and architectural form has a very close association with the purpose it was built for.

Issues for computer modelling of room acoustics in non-concert hall settings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The basic principle of common room acoustics computer models is the energy-based geometrical room acoustics theory. The energy-based calculation relies on the averaging effect provided when there are many reflections from many different directions, which

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

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 ...

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

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.

Bayesian Inference for Acoustic Direction of Arrival Analysis Using Spherical Harmonics

open access: yesEntropy, 2019
This work applies two levels of inference within a Bayesian framework to accomplish estimation of the directions of arrivals (DoAs) of sound sources. The sensing modality is a spherical microphone array based on spherical harmonics beamforming.

Sound archaeology: terminology, Palaeolithic cave art and the soundscape [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This article is focused on the ways that terminology describing the study of music and sound within archaeology has changed over time, and how this reflects developing methodologies, exploring the expectations and issues raised by the use of differing ...

Quasi-periodic Geometry for Architectural Acoustics

open access: yesEnquiry: The ARCC Journal of Architectural Research, 2018
The discovery of quasi-periodic atomic order in the crystalline state has uncovered an exciting new class of symmetries that has never been explored before.
