This paper starts with a short summary about previous work done in the field of head-related transfer function (HRTF) measurement and processing. Afterwards a new method to find and optimize HRTFs is explained. The main idea is to use expert listeners to select and tune the HRTFs with the help of real-time interaction adjustment of all parameters under test. Afterwards a listening test validate...

This paper sums up the previous research on Head-Related Transfer Function (HRTF) individualization for three-dimensional (3D) virtual auditory display. Papers which involve experiment research, theoretical computation research, and applications of 3D virtual auditory display based on HRTFs have been reviewed. The necessity of HRTF individualization is discussed based on the review of previous ...

The article presents a new audio spatialization algorithm for spatialization methods based on the headrelated transfer function (HRTF). The algorithm uses a mathematical model of the HRTF to make the spatialization process simple and fast. The article thoroughly describes this algorithm and provides a comparison of the algorithm to the traditional block convolution filtering approach.

In this article, a time dependent partial differential equation is used to model the nonlinear boundary value problem describing heat transfer through a radial porous moving fin with rectangular profile. The study is performed by applying a numerical solver in MATLAB (pdepe), which is a centered finite difference scheme. The thermal conductivity and fin surface emissivity are linearly ...

Understanding the kinetics of gas hydrate formation is essential to model and predict the hydrate formation (or dissociation) process. In the present paper, we investigated the formation of pure propane gas hydrate as a former gas. In this regard, several experiments were conducted to measure the rate of hydrate formation under various pressures (410 to 510 kPa) and temperatures (274 K to 277 K...

soil hydraulic properties are key soil physical characteristics that are required to conduct soil and water related studies such as irrigation and drainage. in this study, three indirect methods: inverse modeling, pedo-transfer function, and the semi-physical method of arya et al., were compared in a sandy loam soil to estimate soil moisture retention and unsaturated hydraulic conductivity curv...
