Monte Carlo model of the uncertainty of SEA loss factors
Finite Element Methods are widely used to model vibro-acoustic systems, but as the modal density becomes higher this type of model becomes inaccurate and impractical.

Prediction of the sound transmission loss of sandwich structures based on a simple test procedure
Sandwich and honeycomb materials are increasingly used by the vehicle and building industries. Consequently, the prediction of the acoustic properties and in particular the sound transmission loss of sandwich structures is of importance.

Acoustic Properties of Recycled Polyurethane Foam Waste and Polyvinyl Acetate Composites
According to a European Commission report, around 675 000 tons of polyurethane foam waste is generated in Europe annually. Only 11 % of this waste is recycled, and the rest goes to landfills or is incinerated, so it is worth looking for new ways to treat

Abstract The complex evolutionary history behind modern mammalian chewing performance and hearing function is a result of several changes in the entire skeletomuscular system of the skull and lower jaw. Lately, exciting multifunctional 3D analytical methods and kinematic simulations of feeding functions in both modern and fossil mammals and their ...

The effects of sound propagation and avoidance behaviour on naval sonar levels received by cetaceans
The use of active sonar is deemed to be essential for naval operations, but its potential impact on marine life has raised concerns worldwide. In a risk-assessment framework, characterisation of risk of harm is accomplished by combining exposure ...

Abstract Analysis of the variation in the bony structures of the inner and middle ear provides critical insights into functional morphology, as well as adaptive morphology across primates. In this study, we investigated whether ear morphology patterns are related to the ecological characteristics of species and their habitats to test two acoustic ...

Recent advances on active control of sound transmission through ventilation windows
Windows are often the weakest part in a building in terms of sound transmission loss from outside. Many researchers have applied active noise control to improve the sound transmission loss of windows, which includes distributing an array of loudspeakers ...

Sound transmission loss of expansion chambers with staggered upper and lower chamber
The sound transmission losses across expansion chambers with the upper and lower chambers offset (staggered) inside a duct were studied experimentally in the present investigation.

Clade‐wide morphological and functional variation of the sauropsid columella
Abstract The columella (=stapes) is the middle ear bone of reptiles that transmits vibrations from the environment to the inner ear. It has been shown to exhibit extensive interspecific morphological disparity in several clades; however, its morphological variation and associated functional consequences remain poorly described.
