Vibro-Acoustics of Violins based on a Multi-Physic Approach

The paper attempts to give a contribution to the dynamic analysis of musical instruments through application of a multidisciplinary approach oriented to the study of mechanical, structural, vibratory and acoustical phenomena. The systematic organization of the multidisciplinary study proposed by MUSICOS and some preliminary results related to bowed instruments, with particular reference to viol...

Modeling Techniques for Virtual Acoustics

Author Lauri Savioja Title Modeling Techniques for Virtual Acoustics The goal of this research has been the creation of convincing virtual acoustic environments. This consists of three separate modeling tasks: the modeling of the sound source, the room acoustics, and the listener. In this thesis the main emphasis is on room acoustics and sound synthesis. Room acoustic modeling techniques can be...

Acoustics and Modeling of Pickups

Ecology and acoustics at a large scale

There is likely no silent place on Earth. Sounds produced by inanimate sources, as well as by plants, animals and humans, permeate all environments from the deep-sea to the aerosphere, 24 h a day (Stocker, 2013). Eavesdropping on animal vocal communications has been an active field of research for more than 60 years (Busnel, 1963) and has, for example, alerted us to the possible deleterious eff...

Architectural Acoustics, Noise, and INCE: Case Studies, Applications, and Integration of Architectural Acoustics in Building Information Modeling Three-Dimensional Modeling

Architecture and engineering firms use building information management BIM software applications increasingly in the design process; similarly, building owners create BIM models for existing facilities both for internal use and to aid future tenants, facilities managers, and designers in planning for maintenance programs, restoration, or renovation. As for other design and engineering disciplin...
