Sound insulation issues
This paper gives an overview of three topics related to sound insulation in buildings. The first project included laboratory and field measurements of sound insulation against aircraft noise. As well as various technical papers, the project produced software to help in the design of adequate sound insulation. In a second project, re-analysis of survey results allowed the development of a ration...
متن کاملSound insulation in multi-story timber buildings
During on an extensive investigation of a multi-story timber building with light-frame construction, several stages of the building process and their impact on sound transmission were observed. The sound insulation properties of the building components were measured before and while the buildings were occupied. Furthermore, interviews with the occupants were conducted. This procedure made it po...
متن کاملReflection mode photoacoustic measurement of speed of sound.
We present a method to determine the speed of sound in tissue using a double-ring photoacoustic sensor working in reflection mode. This method uses the cross-correlation between the laser-induced ultrasound waves detected by two concentric ring shaped sensors, while a priori information about the depth-position of the photoacoustic source is not required. We demonstrate the concept by estimatin...
متن کاملMeasuring Sound and Noise
The European Community Green Paper on Future Noise Policy (1996) recognised that environmental noise is “one of the main local environmental problems in Europe” but that it has had a lower priority than other environmental problems, such as air or water pollution. It also recognised that, despite significant reductions in the noise produced by individual sources, total exposure to environmental...
متن کاملPredicting the Sound Insulation of Walls
Between 1990 and 1998, the author published five conference papers which described the gradual development of a simple theoretical model for predicting the sound insulation of building partitions. The first aim was to extend Sharp’s model for cavity walls to cavities without sound absorption. The second aim was to remove the reported over prediction of Sharp’s model for cavity walls. The third ...
