Robust tunable acoustic impedance control on electroacoustic resonators for aircraft noise reduction

Air traffic noise emissions are responsible for a significant part of the overall environmental noise, especially in the vicinity of airports. Exposure to environmental noise is known to negatively impact health and to be associated with cardiovascular dis ...

Plasma-based Electroacoustic Actuator for Broadband Sound Absorption

Stanislav Sergeev

Environmental noise, mostly related to human activities, has an immense impact on public health. The development of noise reduction technologies is paramount in addressing this problem. Because of practical and economic reasons, a compact, broadband, light ...

Numerical Simulation of Unreinforced Masonry Buildings with Timber Diaphragms

Katrin Beyer, Francesco Vanin, Igor Tomic, Ivana Bozulic

Though flexible diaphragms play a role in the seismic behaviour of unreinforced masonry buildings, the effect of the connections between floors and walls is rarely discussed or explicitly modelled when simulating the response of such buildings. These flexi ...

Impact of battery energy storage systems on the dynamic behavior of low-inertia power grids

Yihui Zuo

The extensive deployment of non-synchronous generation determines lower level of grid inertia resulting in deteriorated frequency containment performance and abnormal frequency excursions in case of contingency. This calls for identifying assets, controls, ...

Point, Plane, Set, Match! Winning the Echo Grand SLAM

Miranda Krekovic

Some of the most important and challenging problems in science are inverse problems. They allow us to understand phenomena that cannot be measured directly. Inverse problems might not always have a unique or stable solution, or might not have any solution ...

Seismic Performance Characterization of Wood-Sheathed and Cold-Formed Steel Framed Floor and Roof Diaphragm Structures

Dimitrios Lignos

This paper describes a research program involving wood-sheathed and cold-formed steel (CFS) framed diaphragm assemblies.The diaphragm’s response to in-plane monotonic and reversed cyclic lateral loading is investigated in an effort to characterize the seis ...

Characterization of Cold-Formed Steel Framed/Wood Sheathed Floor and Roof Diaphragm Structures

Dimitrios Lignos

The seismic in-plane response of cold-formed steel (CFS) framed diaphragm structures has not been the subject of extensive study. The information available specific to diaphragm design in the North American CFS design standard is based on limited experimen ...

Sensorless Electroacoustic Absorbers Through Synthesized Impedance Control for Damping Low-Frequency Modes in Cavities

Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet

This paper presents a concept of sensorless electroacoustic absorber for damping the low-frequency modes in a cavity such as a duct or a room. Taking advantage of the reciprocity of the voice coil transducer, it is shown that a synthetic electrical admitta ...

Room Modal Equalisation with Electroacoustic Absorbers

Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet

The sound quality in a room is of fundamental importance for both recording and reproducing processes. Because of the room modes, the distributions in space and frequency of the sound field are largely altered. Excessive rise and decay times caused by the ...
