A virtual acoustic black hole on a cantilever beam

Journal of Sound and Vibration, 2023
An acoustic black hole (ABH) consists of a tapered structure whose thickness follows a power-law profile. When attached to a host structure, an ABH localizes and traps the vibrational energy, which can then be dissipated through, e.g., a damping layer.

An end-to-end approach for blindly rendering a virtual sound source in an audio augmented reality environment

EURASIP Journal on Audio, Speech, and Music Processing
Audio augmented reality (AAR), a prominent topic in the field of audio, requires understanding the listening environment of the user for rendering an authentic virtual auditory object. Reverberation time ( $$RT_{60}$$ R T 60 ) is a predominant metric for

Comparison of Impulse Response Generation Methods for a Simple Shoebox-Shaped Room

Acoustics
Simulated room impulse responses (RIRs) are important tools for studying architectural acoustics. Many methods exist to generate RIRs, each with unique properties that need to be considered when choosing an RIR synthesis technique.
