A framework for the development of accurate acoustic calculations for games
Despite the rapid development in acoustics calculation software during the last couple of decades, such advances have not been achieved uniformly. Various demands in different disciplines have shifted the focus to a number of different aspects of the calculations. Methods in game development have focused on speed and optimized calculation times to achieve interactive sound rendering, whilst ...

Case study - Wall leakage testing in the lab with acoustic camera
Problem Facade insulation testing is usually performed by using a loudspeaker in the sending room, and record the sound pressure level (SPL) with microphones in both the sending and receiving room. The difference in SPL adjusted for the size of the dividing wall element will then give an estimate of the sound reduction quality of that element. However these measurements will not say anything on ...

NoiseAtWork - A fit for purpose tool for making contour maps based on measurements
We often turn to complex general purpose interpolation software in order to make contour maps out of our measurements. Yet now there is an easy to use, fit for purpose and cost efficient solution. NoiseAtWork will significantly reduce the time you need to get your maps done. The Bio plotter I started at DGMR in 1981 as acoustic consultant. At that time there was no software available for making ...

The Significance of Sound Diffraction Effects in Predicting Acoustics in Ancient Theatres.
Abstract This paper examines the effect of sound diffraction in predicting sound propagation in ancient theatres. Few simulation studies to date concerning ancient theatre acoustics were conducted with diffraction effects. While sound diffraction effects in ancient theatres are known qualitatively, rarely have they been quantitatively documented. In this paper, the ancient theatre of Kourion in ...

Case study - Identifying low-frequency tonal noise in windy and noisy conditions
Problem A large LNG gas facility (approximately 300m x 150m) producing 300 000 tons of LNG annually is situated in a terminal area with the nearest populated area at a distance of around 1 km. Within the gas production facility, a low-frequency tonal noise at around 500 Hz is generated causing complaints from nearby neighbours. The tone imposes a more stringent noise requirement on the facility, ...
