Design of Simple Acoustic Materials for High School Hall Using Software CATT

open access: yesJournal of Artificial Intelligence in Architecture, 2022
Good acoustic quality is essential to consider in designing a multipurpose room. Unfortunately, school halls usually have poor room acoustics. Lack of funds and lack of knowledge about acoustics cause the acoustic quality of the room to be very poor ...

Acoustic simulation of J.S. Bach’s Thomaskirche in 1723 and 1539

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2021
This paper investigates an early acoustical theory of Hope Bagenal about the Leipzig Thomaskirche, where J.S. Bach composed and conducted from 1723 to 1750. Bagenal predicted that the church had a shorter reverberation time than previously in Bach’s time

Study on Chinese Speech Intelligibility Under Different Low-Frequency Characteristics of Reverberation Time Using a Hybrid Method [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2023
Reverberation time (RT) is an important indicator of room acoustics, however, most studies focus on the mid-high frequency RT, and less on the low-frequency RT.

Pilot study on the influence of spatial resolution of human voice directivity on speech perception

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2022
A perceptual threshold related to spatial resolution of the human voice directivity was determined through a listening test of similarity (MUSHRA). Directivity data of an artificial talking head measured at high spatial resolution (spherical harmonics ...

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.
