Ultrasonic metal welding (USMW) is a technique of welding small-area materials by means of high-frequency vibration friction welding. Despite its wide use, it is still hard to monitor the welding […]
Cathedrals are significant pieces of architecture, symbols of the European culture, whose grandiosity is the result not only of their extraordinary visual features, but also of their remarkable acoustic environment. […]
Tateo Nakajima will give a talk that will present a selection of his projects and the evolution of his design practice, in light of the key influences that have shaped […]
A listening experiment based on a developed paradigm to investigate the intentional switching of auditory selective attention with binaural sound reproduction was conducted to examine the influence of generic, individualized […]
Für die möglichst präzise Auralisation von virtuellen Umgebungen ist die Kenntnis des genauen Schallfeldes der akustischen Szene notwendig. Einen Anteil zum diffusen Schall liefert dabei die Streuung an unebenen Oberflächen. […]
The colloquium talk will be about my duties and activities during my industrial internship at the company HEAD acoustics GmbH. It will focus on the two main projects I worked […]
A previous study showed that background noises and background speech deteriorate children’s listening comprehension, as children lack the ability to neglect irrelevant sounds. A classroomlike atmosphere is required for an […]
The Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology (IPT) aims at developing and improving production machines and technologies. The current internship was conducted under the department of precision technology and automation of […]
Aalto Acoustics Lab (Espoo, Finland) is a collective of five professors working on different topics in audio and acoustics ranging from concert halls to acoustic materials and from virtual analog […]
My internship at Müller-BBM Industry Solutions GmbH involved various tasks in the field of traffic noise research. This included on-site certification of ISO noise test tracks in France and Morocco. […]
Head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) describe the filter process of the incident sound caused by reflection, refraction, diffraction and interference with the ear for a random source position in space to […]
I am a new doctoral candidate at the BMW Group & IHTA and I will give an overview of my past research. During my bachelor’s thesis at FAU in Erlangen, […]
The main purpose of this study is to model the transmission of vibrations in the skull bone using equivalent circuits. For this purpose, further knowledge of the equivalent circuit model […]
Die Notwendigkeit gesetzlicher Regulierungen des Außengeräuschs von Personenkraftwagen (PKW) resultiert aus dem Einfluss von Lärm auf das menschliche Wohlbefinden. Die Messung von PKW-Außengeräuschen wird unter genormten Bedingungen nach gesetzlichen Regulierungen […]
A good part of the global burden of disease can be attributed to environmental factors, such as noise. With a high prevalence of mental health problems in lower socioeconomic groups […]
This presentation is about the work done during the Internship period, the main topic is related to the psychoacoustic parameter sharpness and the results obtained in listening experiments in regard […]
Noise is known to influence human cognitive performance such as auditory selective attention. Not only cognitive abilities, but also physiological reactions can be measured when being exposed to noise. In […]
Auditory selective attention (ASA) refers to the mental ability to resist distractors and to focus on a specific sound in a complex acoustic environment. Revealing the factors that affect people’s […]
This study investigates the impact of air diffuser noise on human well-being, which is relevant due to its widespread use in residential and commercial buildings. The objective is to determine […]
The acoustic propagation of sound in the open field or in the interior can be calculated efficiently and in high quality by geometric simulation methods. However, for correct simulations, accurate […]
