Accurate predictions of the wave-dominated region of an acoustic field in a room can be
generated using wave-based computational methods. One such method is the finite element …

This definitive guide covers the design and application of absorbers and diffusers in
acoustics. Surface diffusion is a relatively young subject area, and diffuser design …

A round robin was conducted to evaluate the state of the art of room acoustic modeling
software both in the physical and perceptual realms. The test was based on six acoustic …

Urban sustainability issues in buildings have become more prominent in waste recycling
and noise control studies. This work aimed to produce and characterize the composition of …

The sound environment in urban areas is complex, as caused by many sources of sound
and influenced by a variety of acoustic propagation effects. In order to combat noise and …

Parametric spatial audio rendering is a popular approach for low computing capacity
applications, such as augmented reality systems. However most methods rely on spatial …

Room acoustical simulations are usually evaluated by comparing them to measurements in
corresponding physical environments as a benchmark. However, it proved to be challenging …

The in situ absorption characteristics of sound-absorbing samples are generally estimated
inversely from sound field measurements above the sample's surface. However, the entire …

The knowledge of the acoustic impedance of a material allows for the calculation of its
acoustic absorption. Impedance can also be linked to structural and physical proprieties of …

This work proposes a method to predict the sound absorption coefficient of finite porous
absorbers using a residual neural network and a single-layer microphone array. The goal is …
