Acoustic waves are fascinating phenomena in gases, liquids or solids with numerous
physical and technical aspects. Air is the medium of interest when it comes to audible sound …

This study analyses one of the most popular game engines and an audio middleware to
reproduce sound according to sound propagation physics. The analysis focuses on the …

The modeling of source directivity is a problem of longstanding interest in virtual acoustics
and auralisation. This remains the case for newer time domain volumetric wave-based …

This article discusses the integration of acoustic design approaches into architectural design
education settings. Solving architectural acoustic problems has been for centuries one of the …

While urban sound management often focuses on sound as a nuisance, soundscape
research suggests that proactive design approaches involving sound art installations can …

We present the Elements project, a lightweight, open-source, computational science and
computer graphics (CG) framework, tailored for educational needs, that offers, for the first …

Abstract Lamb Waves (LW) based Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) aims to monitor the
health state of thin structures. An Initial Wave Packet (IWP) is sent in the structure and …

Urban sound management often amounts to reducing sound levels with the underlying
assumption of sound/noise as a nuisance. However, a reduction in sound level does not …

Different methods can be employed to render virtual reverberation, often requiring
substantial information about the room's geometry and the acoustic characteristics of the …

Virtual reality (VR) is a computer-generated environment for interaction in real time. One
important feature of VR is the multimodality of the human-computer interface. Most VR …
