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.

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.

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 ...

Preserving Human Perspectives in Cultural Heritage Acoustics: Distance Cues and Proxemics in Aural Heritage Fieldwork

open access: yesAcoustics, 2021
We examine the praxis implications of our working definition of aural heritage: spatial acoustics as physically experienced by humans in cultural contexts; aligned with the aims of anthropological archaeology (the study of human life from materials ...

Architectural Indoor Analysis: A Holistic Approach to Understand the Relation of Higher Education Classrooms and Academic Performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The influence of learning space on users has been broadly accepted and tested. However, the literature has focused on single factor research, instead of holistic approaches.

Influence of the Widespread Use of Corten Plate on the Acoustics of the European Solidarity Centre Building in Gdańsk

open access: yesBuildings, 2021
This paper describes the relationship between a strong architectural vision that is difficult to balance, and user expectations in terms of acoustics. The focus is on the use of corten steel as the dominant finishing material on façades and interiors to ...
