Brozova: Examining the Interrelation and Perceptual Influence of Head-Related Transfer Functions Distance Metrics

Zoom-Meeting

In this thesis, the mutual information and interaction between different objective distance metrics for HRTF comparison were analyzed and evaluated. For this purpose, tools such as correlation analysis, principal component analysis and factor analysis were used. The metrics were reduced to a smaller set of measures suitable for a listening experiment, covering both spatial and […]

Liu: Transfer path analysis in Ultrasonic Metal Welding based on experimental data and simulations

Zoom-Meeting

Ultrasonic metal welding (USMW) is a kind of solid-state bonding technique for connecting similar or dissimilar metals using extremely fast frequency oscillations (ultrasonic frequencies). However, some details of vibration during the USMW are still unclear in this study field. In this work, 27 groups of measurements on the oscillation of the sonotrode and anvil vibrations […]

Chen: Incident-angle dependent measurement of sound scattering patterns

Zoom-Meeting

The acoustic scattering of surface is very important in all aspects of room acoustics like in concert halls and reverberation rooms. The acoustic propagation of sound can be calculated effectively and in high quality by geometrical simulation methods. Nevertheless, reliable scattering coefficients are needed. In this master’s thesis, the uncertainty of standardized measurement methods will […]

Hahn: Dynamic synthesis of passenger car pass-by sounds

Zoom-Meeting

Progress in the field of computer-based calculation and simulation of sound fields and acoustic propagation effects enable numerous new applications for auralisation, e.g. design of cities and buildings, noise reduction and machine learning. In addition to the consideration of audible propagation effects a realistic synthesis of the source signal is essential for the generation of […]

Pausch: Spatial audio reproduction for hearing aid research: System design, evaluation and application

Zoom-Meeting

Hearing loss (HL) has multifaceted negative consequences for individuals of all age groups. Despite individual fitting based on clinical assessment, consequent usage of hearing aids (HAs) as a remedy is often discouraged due to unsatisfactory HA performance. Consequently, the methodological complexity in the development of HA algorithms has been increased by employing virtual acoustic environments, […]

Izquierdo: Research lines of the Array Processing Group [GPA] of the University of Valladolid: Beamforming with MEMS sensor arrays

Zoom-Meeting

For more than 15 years the GPA has been working on the design and implementation of acoustic sensor arrays that by means of classical beamforming techniques allow to electronically position a beam in space. The evolution of acoustic array construction technologies will be analyzed from the analog field with conventional microphones, AD/DA converters and DSP […]

Berger: Validation of a Dual-Task Paradigm to investigate Listening Effort in Speech-Shaped Noise versus Multi-Talker Babble

Zoom-Meeting

Listening effort is defined as the use of cognitive resources necessary to complete a task or follow a conversation. The words heard must be consciously received in order to understand, processed and further communicate. Communication is an essential part of everyday social life and is usually connected with background noise. The aim of this work […]

It involved the […]

Lachenmayr: Applied room acoustics – How to build a concert hall

Zoom-Meeting

The building of a concert hall is a process of many aspects and stages - some of which have to do with acoustics. In this talk we will share insights from Müller-BBMs’ extensive experience in the topic by means of a project case study: Musikzentrum Bochum. The various acoustic planning stages within a given project […]

Witew: Measurements in room acoustics – Uncertainties and influence of the measurement position

IHTA Seminarraum (60 Persons) and Zoom-Meeting (Hybrid) Kopernikusstr. 5, Aachen, Deutschland

Regardless of the field, measurements are essential for the validation of theories and for making well-founded decisions. A criterion for the validity and comparability of measured values is their uncertainty. The "Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement" (GUM) provides a standardized framework for determining and interpreting measurement uncertainty. In room acoustic measurements, the […]

Guo: Studying the effect of increased realism on auditory distraction in open-plan offices using headphone-based virtual acoustic methods

IHTA Seminarraum (60 Persons) and Zoom-Meeting (Hybrid) Kopernikusstr. 5, Aachen, Deutschland

Open-plan offices have been popular for their significant advantages such as economical savings and flexible layout design. However, according to several questionnaire studies, noise, and in particular, irrelevant speech has been rated as the major source of annoyance in open-plan offices, which impairs concentration severely and causes productivity decline. As the Irrelevant Sound Effect (ISE) […]
