The study of interactions of jet into cross flow at different longitudinal and transverse angles of jet was studied. The following components were designed and constructed: a low velocity wind tunnel to produce the uniform flow, a flat plate with a traverse injection system to simulate the jet injection, and a spatial rake to measure the total pressure. The tests were carried out at longitudina...

This paper presents an ongoing project for augmenting acoustic instruments with active acoustics. Active acoustics are defined as audio-rate vibration driven into the instruments physical structure, inducing air-borne sound output. The instrument’s acoustic sound is thus doubled by an electronic soundscape radiating from the same source. The article is centered on a case study on two guitars, o...

Research on room acoustic simulation focuses on more accurate modeling of wave effects in rooms. Today, also wave models (e.g., the boundary element method and the finite differences in time domain technique) can be used for higher frequencies, thus, in the geometrical acoustics (GA) domain. Simulations in architectural acoustics are powerful tools but their reliability depends on the input dat...

JDMS, Volume 1, Issue 4, October 2004 Page 225–233 © 2004 The Society for Modeling and Simulation International Acoustics is an important consideration for realistic agent behavior in land combat, entity-based simulation models. This research describes basic approaches to representing and applying outdoor sound with limited discussion of the evolving field of indoor acoustics in such simulation...

Room acoustics has a scientific interdisciplinary concept which will be further developed in future. During the last century, several dimensions of the overall listening impression in concert halls were identified which show a good correlation with corresponding objective measurement data. It can be summarized that the three most important factors (loudness, reverberance and spatial impression)...
