Two journal papers from our group have recently been accepted or publication. One paper is part of the stage acoustics PhD project of Remy Wenmaekers, titled ‘Sensitivity of stage acoustic parameters to source and receiver directivity: Measurements on three stages and in two orchestra pits‘, published Applied Acoustics. The other paper is on the role of acoustics in open study environments. PhD student Ella Braat-Eggen is first author of this work: ‘Noise disturbance in open-plan study environments: A field study on noise sources, student tasks and room acoustic parameters‘.
