Traffic snarl-up or traffic jam is a common phenomenon in Puri, one of the imperative pilgrimage sites for Hindus as well as a popular tourist destination in India. Traffic congestion inevitably produces traffic noise, in turn annoying the drivers, leading to road rage. Keeping this in mind, the present article has monitored and assessed different noise descriptors in 7 different types of buses...

Thermocline layer have remarkable effects on acoustic propagation in Persian Gulf environment. So far, no comprehensive research has been conducted to explore thermocline layer, especially its characteristics including top, thickness, and thermal gradient of thermocline in Persian Gulf. Besides, effects of thermocline on underwater acoustic propagation including transmission loss and sound chan...

Acoustic comfort is directly related to enhanced well-being and performance of people. A typical challenge faced by architects acousticians achieve adequate acoustics while maintaining the aesthetics space reducing visual aspects acoustic materials elements. In this study, we present a biofiber-based coating as feasible solution improve environments preserving spaces. An thin layer absorption m...

Recently importance of hands-free speech communication is increasingly recognized. The sound data for open evaluation is necessary for the studies such as sound source localization, sound retrieval, sound recognition and hands-free speech recognition in real acoustic environments. This paper reports on our project for the acoustic data collection. There are many kinds of sounds in real environm...

Sound measured at various points around the environment can be evaluated by a series of multi-pole sources and their acoustic strength can be acquired. In this numerical study, a method, called the inverse method, was examined to achieve this goal. A variety of arrangements of different sources were considered and the acoustic strength of these sources was acquired. Through the application of t...

underwater acoustic wireless sensor network (uawsn) use acoustic signalsto transmit data. acoustic signals in underwater environment have high bit errorrate, long propagation delay and limited bandwidth. another constraint in uwasnis energy. due to these constraints, design of energy and bandwidth efficient andpropagation delay aware mac protocol is a great challenge in uwasn.underwater sensor ...

In this paper, the acoustic environment in a vehicle cabin under the influence of highfrequencies aerodynamic sources has been studied. Some panels on the windshield, the roof, the doors, the front pillars, and the floor of a vehicle simulated as input source of noise when the car is moving at high speed, i.e. 112 km/h. The status of vehicle cabin in each of these modes has been studied and com...
