NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF RIGID PAVEMENT BEHAVIOR TO NON-DESTUCTIVE IMPULSE RESPONSE TESTING

Rigid sphere room impulse response simulation: algorithm and applications.

Simulated room impulse responses have been proven to be both useful and indispensable for comprehensive testing of acoustic signal processing algorithms while controlling parameters such as the reverberation time, room dimensions, and source-array distance. In this work, a method is proposed for simulating the room impulse responses between a sound source and the microphones positioned on a sph...

Non-destructive Impulse Response S’mash Method for Concrete Pile Testing

Nowadays, in the civil engineering practice, the pile-building is the most universal type of foundation. It is usually associated with bridges, fly-overs and other civil engineering objects, industrial buildings, tall buildings, chimneys, tanks etc [1]. It is essential to control the quality of concrete piles. The most accepted weight-bearing capacity measurement technique is the static probe l...
