New paper on acoustic impedance of vegetated roofs
Urban vegetation—especially vegetated roofs—has real potential for noise mitigation. But accurately measuring their acoustic properties in situ is not as straightforward as it seems. In our new paper, “Influence of transducer locations on acoustic impedance prediction in porous systems with application to vegetated roofs,” we take a close look at how small errors in source and microphone positioning can strongly affect the…

Paper on the acoustic diffusion equation model in long rooms
We are happy to share our latest Applied Acoustics article:“An empirical diffusion coefficient function for the acoustic diffusion equation model in long rooms” In this work, we tackle one of the limitations of the acoustic diffusion equation, when applied to elongated spaces. We propose a spatially varying, empirically derived diffusion coefficient, optimized against radiosity simulations, and…
