Road traffic noise affects the quality of life in the areas adjoining the road. The effect of traffic noise on people is wide ranging and may include sleep disturbance and negative impact on work efficiency. To address the problem of traffic noise, it is n ...
Since regulations concerning traffic noise are becoming more and more demanding, meteorological effects (turbulence, temperature and wind speed gradients) can no more be neglected in noise propagation prediction at long ranges. To validate numerical models ...
The solution obtained with the acoustical image sources method was shown to be the contribution of terms issued from a series development of the integral method (believed to be the exact solution). Missing terms in the geometrical method represent, among o ...
We consider the rate-distortion problem for recording a Gaussian acoustic field with an array of sensors equipped with microphones. Our analysis is based on the field's spatiotemporal correlation structure, which is induced by the physics of sound propagat ...
Sound or acoustic tomography is a type of inverse problem. The idea of estimating physical quantities that influence sound propagation by measuring the parameters of sound propagation has proven to be successful in several practical domains, including medi ...
Sound impact of road and railway infrastructures are more and more severely regulated by European laws: acceptable thresholds in emission and reception are decreasing. This implies to develop propagation models able to take many phenomena into account at t ...
The main objective was to show that the acoustic tomography constitutes a new method to investigate the main hydrodynamical processes of the lake of Geneva. The work is based of the various related fields to the tomography, namely : acoustic wave propagati ...
Inline conversion measurements in chem. reactions are in general and esp. in polymn. reactions necessary for process monitoring and control. For polymn. monitoring, the sound propagation (UPV) can be related to the texture of the bulk with a high accuracy. ...
