Book Synopsis Acoustic Room De-reverberation Using Time-Reversal Acoustics by : David W. Liddy
Download or read book Acoustic Room De-reverberation Using Time-Reversal Acoustics written by David W. Liddy and published by . This book was released on 1999-09-01 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis probes the performance of one-channel time-reversal acoustics in a chamber in terms of the geometry of the cavity. In particular, a rectangular chamber is compared to an enclosure that has a stadium shape. The mode structure in the rectangular cavity is highly symmetric, while it is highly irregular in the stadium-shaped cavity. Time- reversal acoustic techniques produce an improved focus in the latter. The focusing quality is determined as a function of frequency, time-reversal window size, and spatial extent. A scheme for encrypted acoustic communication, both in air and underwater, that uses multiple broadband signals with identical bandwidth, Hanning window source spectra, and center frequencies separated by half the bandwidth, allowing for null detection between adjacent signals, is successfully investigated.
Book Synopsis Time Reversal Acoustics by : Woon Siong Gan
Download or read book Time Reversal Acoustics written by Woon Siong Gan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-06 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights time reversal acoustics, techniques based on the symmetry properties of acoustic fields. It has the unique feature that the first eleven chapters of the book are on the indepth studies of the theories of time reversal acoustics. The remaining chapters are on the four major applications of time reversal acoustics, together with their experimental setups and case studies: underwater communication, seismic exploration,nondestructive evaluation, and medical ultrasound imaging.. The gauge invariance approach to acoustic fields, proposed by the author in 2007, is confirmed by the successful fabrication of acoustical metamaterials and the applications of time reversal acoustics to superresolution. The book also presents groundbreaking applications of time reversal acoustics to underwater communication technology and the application of metamaterials to time reversal acoustics.

Book Synopsis New Directions in Linear Acoustics and Vibration by : Matthew Wright
Download or read book New Directions in Linear Acoustics and Vibration written by Matthew Wright and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-07-26 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linear acoustics was thought to be fully encapsulated in physics texts of the 1950s, but this view has been changed by developments in physics during the last four decades. There is a significant new amount of theory that can be used to address problems in linear acoustics and vibration, but only a small amount of reported work does so. This book is an attempt to bridge the gap between theoreticians and practitioners, as well as the gap between quantum and acoustic. Tutorial chapters provide introductions to each of the major aspects of the physical theory and are written using the appropriate terminology of the acoustical community. The book will act as a quick-start guide to the new methods while providing a wide-ranging introduction to the physical concepts.

This book was released on 2018-06-04 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One-third octave band background noise and reverberation time measurements were conducted in the Exterior Effect Room (EER) at the NASA Langley Research Center. The related overall acoustic absorption of the room was calculated. The acoustic field in the room was characterized. Reverberation time measurements were performed using the integrated impulse response method. The results were compared with independent measurements using the interrupted noise reverberation time method and different instrumentation. Reasonable agreement was obtained between the reverberation times of the two methods.Grosveld, Ferdinand W.Langley Research CenterREVERBERATION; BACKGROUND NOISE; ACOUSTIC ATTENUATION; OCTAVES; ACOUSTICS; NOISE MEASUREMENT; TIME MEASUREMENT; SOUND FIELDS; ABSORPTIVITY
Book Synopsis Theoretical Evaluation of Continuous-wave Time Reversal Acoustics in a Half-space Environment by : Blaine Harker
Download or read book Theoretical Evaluation of Continuous-wave Time Reversal Acoustics in a Half-space Environment written by Blaine Harker and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time reversal (TR) acoustics is a technique used to locate sources, using a set of transducers called a time reversal mirror (TRM) and is especially useful in reverberant environments. TR is commonly used to find acoustically small sources using a pulsed waveform. Here TR is applied to simple sources using steady-state waveforms using a straightforward, computational point source propagation theoretical model in a half-space environment. It is found that TR can effectively localize a simple source broadcasting a continuous wave, depending on the angular spacing. Furthermore, the aperture (angular coverage around the source) of the TRM is the most important parameter when creating a setup of receivers for imaging a source. This work quantifies how a TRM may be optimized when the source's location is known to be within a certain region of certainty.

Book Synopsis Room Acoustics by : Heinrich Kuttruff
Download or read book Room Acoustics written by Heinrich Kuttruff and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Well established as a classic reference and specialised textbook, since its first publication in 1973, Heinrich Kuttruff’s Room Acoustics combines detailed coverage with a state of art presentation of the theory and practice of sound behaviour in closed spaces. This sixth edition presents several additional new sections, for instance on the reflection of a spherical wave from a wall, on finite element methods for sound field calculation and on virtual reality, as well as giving an overhaul of the standard material. Particular emphasis is given to the properties and calculation of reverberation, the most obvious acoustical feature of a room. And further key topics include the various mechanisms of sound absorption and their practical application as well as scattering by wall irregularities including pseudo-stochastic structures. Extensive space is given to of psychoacoustic insights and the quality criteria derived from them, along with new procedures for the sensory assessment of concert hall acoustics. As in earlier editions, one full and updated chapter is devoted to the design and performance of electroacoustic systems which nowadays is not just a method for sound amplification but offers many possibilities for correcting acoustic deficiencies and modifying a hall’s natural acoustics.

Book Synopsis Nonlinear Ultrasonic and Vibro-Acoustical Techniques for Nondestructive Evaluation by : Tribikram Kundu
Download or read book Nonlinear Ultrasonic and Vibro-Acoustical Techniques for Nondestructive Evaluation written by Tribikram Kundu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-19 with total page 761 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This multi-contributed volume provides a practical, applications-focused introduction to nonlinear acoustical techniques for nondestructive evaluation. Compared to linear techniques, nonlinear acoustical/ultrasonic techniques are much more sensitive to micro-cracks and other types of small distributed damages. Most materials and structures exhibit nonlinear behavior due to the formation of dislocation and micro-cracks from fatigue or other types of repetitive loadings well before detectable macro-cracks are formed. Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) tools that have been developed based on nonlinear acoustical techniques are capable of providing early warnings about the possibility of structural failure before detectable macro-cracks are formed. This book presents the full range of nonlinear acoustical techniques used today for NDE. The expert chapters cover both theoretical and experimental aspects, but always with an eye towards applications. Unlike other titles currently available, which treat nonlinearity as a physics problem and focus on different analytical derivations, the present volume emphasizes NDE applications over detailed analytical derivations. The introductory chapter presents the fundamentals in a manner accessible to anyone with an undergraduate degree in Engineering or Physics and equips the reader with all of the necessary background to understand the remaining chapters. This self-contained volume will be a valuable reference to graduate students through practising researchers in Engineering, Materials Science, and Physics. Represents the first book on nonlinear acoustical techniques for NDE applications Emphasizes applications of nonlinear acoustical techniques Presents the fundamental physics and mathematics behind nonlinear acoustical phenomenon in a simple, easily understood manner Covers a variety of popular NDE techniques based on nonlinear acoustics in a single volume

Book Synopsis Understanding Acoustics by : Steven L. Garrett
Download or read book Understanding Acoustics written by Steven L. Garrett and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-24 with total page 913 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides a unified approach to acoustics and vibration suitable for use in advanced undergraduate and first-year graduate courses on vibration and fluids. The book includes thorough treatment of vibration of harmonic oscillators, coupled oscillators, isotropic elasticity, and waves in solids including the use of resonance techniques for determination of elastic moduli. Drawing on 35 years of experience teaching introductory graduate acoustics at the Naval Postgraduate School and Penn State, the author presents a hydrodynamic approach to the acoustics of sound in fluids that provides a uniform methodology for analysis of lumped-element systems and wave propagation that can incorporate attenuation mechanisms and complex media. This view provides a consistent and reliable approach that can be extended with confidence to more complex fluids and future applications. Understanding Acoustics opens with a mathematical introduction that includes graphing and statistical uncertainty, followed by five chapters on vibration and elastic waves that provide important results and highlight modern applications while introducing analytical techniques that are revisited in the study of waves in fluids covered in Part II. A unified approach to waves in fluids (i.e., liquids and gases) is based on a mastery of the hydrodynamic equations. Part III demonstrates extensions of this view to nonlinear acoustics. Engaging and practical, this book is a must-read for graduate students in acoustics and vibration as well as active researchers interested in a novel approach to the material.
