Low frequency background noise in rooms generated by numbers of human activities - traf-fic, railway, airport and industrial noise - creates major disturbances from loss of speech in-telligibility to stress and fatigue. To overcome such situations classica ...
Active materials with adaptive acoustic impedance are materials with an acoustic characteristic which can be controlled using as external source of energy and a control circuit. Controlling the acoustic impedance means controlling the transmission, reflect ...
Classical room acoustics are based on the interpretation of different sound attributes such as reverberation time, clarity and spatial decay. Based on echograms calculated from a microphone array, the dispersion of early reflections is measured and the ref ...
We present a concept of "active material" with variable acoustic properties, being constituted of an electroacoustic transducer which acoustic impedance can be changed by an active mean. Among the different ways to obtain variable acoustic properties on an ...
Variable acoustic properties can be obtained on an electroacoustic transducer’s voicing face by very basic control strategies, among which are the shunting of the loudspeaker (shortcut, variable electric load, or negative resistance disposals). It is prove ...
Low frequency background noise (below 200 Hz) is perceptible in many situations such as in room acoustics or industrials issues. Generate by numerous type of source (traffic noise, aircraft, industrial plants, electricity transformer,… ), this type of nois ...
In this contribution, we describe a novel approach to the problem of setting micrometric droplets in motion. First, this paper reviews the state-of-the-art methods to enable millimetric droplet motion, and investigates the scalability of the most promising ...
Active control of the acoustic impedance of walls in rooms allows fine control of the reverberation in auditoria. Such active materials may use locally reacting cells comprising a transducer connected to an electronic control circuit. In this paper, a simp ...
In complex outdoor sound propagation meteorological effects as well as various absorbing properties and shapes of the boundaries need to be accounted for. This paper presents a hybrid GFPE-BEM method relying on the power of the BEM near obstacles and uneve ...
Within the framework of an outdoor active noise control project, a need arose, namely to establish whether electrodynamic loudspeakers are likely to be affected by the primary noise or by the interactions between them. The aim of this thesis is therefore t ...
