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 […]
The presentation will introduce the company and give an insight into the practical work experience during the internship. The focus of the talk will lie on the explanation of the […]
English: When the ear canal is occluded by devices such as headphones or hearing aids, the auditory perception of bone-conducted sounds is increased, which results, e.g., in an alteration of […]
Nowadays, more and more conversations are conducted via technical aids, such as computers or mobile phones. In technology, there can be connection or processing problems that lead to disturbances in […]
Ultrasonic Metal Welding (USMW) is a widely used manufacturing technology for joining metal components in modern industry. The metal sheets which are placed above the anvil need to be bonded. […]
Aircraft and wind turbine noise emissions are increasingly important issues for society due to the noise annoyance and negative health effects in local communities, as well as for the industry […]
In this talk we will follow the acoustical investigations in the design process of a classical concert hall, from the first talk with the client, listening to several halls, setting […]
In modern life, the proportion of computer-mediated conversations is gradually increasing, e.g., lectures via zoom, or virtual reality (VR). In real-life, information is perceived multi-modal: in addition to visual information, […]
Point Clouds has been used in architectural representation and digital reconstruction, usually are called Digital Twins. These models should offer measurement accuracy and complete compatibility in all phases of architectural […]
To assess the thermal comfort in the indoor spaces such as office rooms generally a large number of thermal sensors is mounted in the workplaces. The main drawback of this […]
Audio-visual experiences of modeled spaces play a key role when studying the human perception of the built environment, and the results should give us an intuitive sense of the real […]
Every day we are exposed to background noise with a multitude of simultaneous noises from different origin, for example on the bus, at work, or at a party. Nevertheless, we […]
This presentation will give an overview on my internship in the NVH (noise-vibration-harshness) research department of HEAD acoustics. First, the company and the work environment are introduced. As my tasks […]
The presentation will be about my tasks and activities at HEAD acoustics GmbH. During the entirety of my industrial internship, I was part of the Telecommunications Research and Standardisation department. […]
This study investigates the influence of virtual humans on auditory selective attention within a virtual reality (VR) environment. Auditory selective attention is a well-established phenomenon that affects our ability to […]
The generation and propagation of noise is an ongoing research topic that affects everyone. Urban environments in particular suffer from high levels of noise pollution, which can negatively impact the […]
The scattering coefficient is a crucial parameter in acoustics, as it plays a significant role in characterizing the scattering of sound waves from surfaces and materials. In this study, we […]
There is a shift going on from manned aviation to unmanned aviation where drones, mainly DJIs are being used for social public purposes. The drones are easily distinguishable from other […]
