Architectural Acoustics and Signal Processing in Acoustics: Verification of Auralization and Modeling Programs I

Architectural Acoustics and Education in Acoustics: Computer Modeling in Buildings and the Environment as an Education Tool

Acoustic building modeling in computer programs is very useful in the understanding of room acoustics for venues of various types by architecture and architectural engineering students. Models provide calculation of reverberation time using the Sabine and similar equations as interior materials are changed. Ray tracing can be used to understand the effect of disturbing sound reflections from in...

Efficient Physics-based Room-acoustics Modeling and Auralization

Author Samuel Siltanen Title Efficient Physics-Based Room-Acoustics Modeling and Auralization The goal of this research is to develop efficient algorithms for physicsbased room acoustics modeling and real-time auralization. Given the room geometry and wall materials, in addition to listener and sound source positions and other properties, the auralization system aims at reproducing the sound as...

Auralization of Accelerating Passenger Cars Using Spectral Modeling Synthesis

While the technique of auralization has been in use for quite some time in architectural acoustics, the application to environmental noise has been discovered only recently. With road traffic noise being the dominant noise source in most countries, particular interest lies in the synthesis of realistic pass-by sounds. This article describes an auralizator for pass-bys of accelerating passenger ...

A Real-time Auralization Plugin for Architectural Design and Education

The role of acoustics in architectural planning processes is often neglected if the designer lacks necessary experience in acoustics. Even if an acoustic consultant is involved he might be presented with limited options after the initial planning process. Some disadvantageous decisions might be hard to reverse then. To improve and facilitate the construction process permanent immediate feedback...
