Poor acoustic conditions in educational institutions affect children. A noisy environment puts children under constant stress and impairs their performance. Most of the present research and standards concerning classroom acoustics […]
This talk will address the musical blind source separation problem: given multiple instrument tracks recorded together, how can each be isolated from the others given no additional knowledge about the […]
Already in ancient times, the goal existed to design appropriate environments to transport acoustic signals from a sound source to an audience. Strongly connected to this is the interest to […]
Auralizations of simulationed aircraft flyovers can be used to experience aircraft noise in virtual environments. Compared to averaged sound pressure levels or noise maps, listening to such an auralization provides […]
Das binaurale Hören und damit insbesondere die Fähigkeit, Schallquellen im Raum lokalisieren zu können, spielt eine bedeutende Rolle im alltäglichen Leben eines jeden Menschen. Genutzt wird dafür jeweils die eigene, […]
The goal of this thesis is building an extension that can reduce the interference of the noise in some precision measurement experiments, which means increasing the directivity of the microphone. […]
Im Rahmen dieser Bachelorarbeit werden Außenohrübertragungsfunktionen (head-related transfer functions, kurz HRTFs) basierend auf 3D-Modellen untersucht. Eine HRTF beschreibt den richtungsabhängigen Filterprozess, den ein Schallereignis ausgehend von einer Schallquelle bis zum […]
In January 2021, a junior research group will be born inside RWTH Aachen University. The Person-focused Analysis of Architectural Desgin group aims to elaborate an architectural design categorization based on […]
Ultrasonic metal welding (USMW) has received significant attention in recent years. It is particularly suitable for connecting electrotechnical components and has been widely used in various industrial applications. However, the […]
Binaural hearing is a complex process that is significantly influenced by physical attributes of the listener. These dependencies on the shape of the torso, head, but also the resonance properties […]
In order to provide a diagnosis about the urban sound environment, especially for traffic, sound classification using deep learning with convolutional neural networks has received increasing attention. There are already […]
Kommunikation im Alltag findet selten in einer ruhigen und nachhallarmen Umgebung statt. Tatsächlich spielt sich ein Großteil der Kommunikation und des Lernens in lauten, halligen und von Störgeräuschen geprägten Umgebungen […]
In Bildungseinrichtungen sind Kinder häufig inneren und äußeren Lärmeinflüssen ausgesetzt. Die externen Geräusche haben Lärm durch anliegende Straßen oder Spielplätze oder gegebenenfalls durch Flugzeuge zur Ursache. Auf der anderen Seite […]
The façade sound insulation is important in perspective that the growing traffic noise is causing annoyance in daily life activities in residential dwellings as well in worksites. The available façade […]
In recent times, measurement systems for acquiring individual head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) by inserting microphones at the entrances of both ear canals and recording the emitted sound signals of loudspeaker […]
The impulse response of a room describes the acoustic transmission path between a given source and receiver. One way to acquired an impulse response is by using simulations of a […]
This thesis aims at modelling and simulating the transmission paths of sound in the human auditory system using the finite element method. For this, a 3D model will be constructed […]
Teaching courses online has gained importance in the recent semesters. While lectures can often be delivered in a straight forward manner, lab courses require a specific infrastructure. This talk presents […]
Lärm ist heutzutage ein großer Faktor, der die Gesundheit vieler Menschen beeinträchtigt. Dabei entstehen neben den direkten Schäden am Gehör, den auralen Lärmeffekten, auch weitere, nicht direkt gehörbezogene gesundheitliche Schäden […]
When assessing how aircraft noise is perceived by residents of nearby urban environments, auralization can be an effective tool. For this purpose, it is necessary to consider how propagation paths […]
