1. 26. Acoustic excitation and transmission of lightweight structures

   Författare :Jonas Brunskog; Teknisk akustik; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; point mobility; Lamb waves; wood.; Building construction; plate excitation; cavities; near-periodicity; nearly periodic; sound insulation; timber; structural acoustics; spatial Fourier transform; resilient device; prediction model; periodic; lightweight; ISO tapping machine; airborne noise; Building acoustics; impact noise; Byggnadsteknik;

   Sammanfattning : In order to increase our knowledge of the sound transmission and radiation processes of lightweight wall and floor structures, theoretical models are needed. Detailed models may form a valuable tool. In lightweight floor structures, impact sound insulation is perhaps the most important property to consider. LÄS MER

3. 27. On the control of virtual violins : Physical modelling and control of bowed string instruments

   Författare :Matthias Demoucron; Anders Askenfelt; Rene Causse; Benoit Fabre; Marcelo Wanderley; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bowed string; physical modelling; sound synthesis; performance control; violin playing; Corde frottée; modélisation physique; synthèse sonore; contrôle gestuel; violon; Struken sträng; fysikalisk modellering; ljudsyntes; musikutförande; violinspel; Other physics; Övrig fysik; Computer science; Datavetenskap; Acoustics; Akustik;

   Sammanfattning :   This thesis treats the control of sound synthesis of bowed string instruments based on physical modelling. The work followed two approaches: (a) a systematic exploration of the influence of control parameters (bow force, bow velocity, and bow-bridge distance) on the output of a physical model of the violin, and (b) measurements and analyses of the bowing parameters in real violin playing in order to model and parameterize basic classes of bowing patterns for synthesis control.

4. 28. A few aspects of aircraft noise

   Författare :Crispin Dickson; Shafiquzzaman Khan; Mendel Kleiner; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; paired comparison; sorting based paired comparison; sorting algorithms; mergesort; quicksort; aircraft sound synthesis; aircraft noise; sound quality; tonal effects; angle positions; flight conditions; methods of equalization; cognition; Acoustics; Akustik;

   Sammanfattning : A few aspects of aircraft noise were evaluated. These were (i) methods of subjective evaluations, (ii) effects of equalization and (iii) the effects of cognitive aspects.In the first paper, sorting algorithms were used instead of conventional paired comparison method in order to reduce the number of pairs in the evaluation of subjective judgments.

5. 29. Studies of sound generation and propagation in flow ducts

   Författare :Fabrice Ducret; Mats Åbom; Andy Moorhouse; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; two-port; plane wave; HVAC system; tailpipe; exhaust system; flexible duct; pipe; reflection coefficient; impedance; flow noise; vorticity; damping; scaling laws; impedance; transmission loss; perforated plate; slit; non linearity; Acoustics; Akustik;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis contains three papers investigating problems of interest for noise control in ducts. The first part of this thesis treats the sound propagation in rectangular ducts with flexible walls. Various experimental techniques are performed to measure the internal sound propagation and radiation to the surrounding. LÄS MER

7. 30. In search for the conversational homunculus : serving to understand spoken human face-to-face interaction

   Författare :Jens Edlund; Joakim Gustafson; David Traum; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Acoustics; Akustik;

   Sammanfattning : In the group of people with whom I have worked most closely, we recently attempted to dress our visionary goal in words: “to learn enough about human face-to-face interaction that we are able to create an artificial conversational partner that is humanlike”. The “conversational homunculus” figuring in the title of this book represents this “artificial conversational partner”. LÄS MER
