3-Dimensional room impulse response measurements in critical listening spaces (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Romero Perez, J., & Fazenda, B. (2008, January). 3-Dimensional room impulse response measurements in critical listening spaces. Presented at Institute of Acoustics

Most of the knowledge and the existing objective acoustic measures defined to describe the sound field in large spaces are commonly evoked to predict the acoustic performance of small rooms. It is now becoming evident that this practice leads to flaw... Read More about 3-Dimensional room impulse response measurements in critical listening spaces.

Investigating SME resilience and their adaptive capacities to extreme weather events: A literature review and synthesis (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Ingirige, B., Jones, K., & Proverbs, D. (2008, January). Investigating SME resilience and their adaptive capacities to extreme weather events: A literature review and synthesis. Presented at Building Resilience BEAR 2008, Kandalama, Sri Lanka

In the UK, extreme weather events (EWEs) such as floods, heat waves and storms are increasing in frequency and severity. The ability of local communities to cope with the immediate impact and recover from the aftermath is critical to the continued we...

A time domain boundary element method for compliant surfaces (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Hargreaves, J., & Cox, T. (2008, January). A time domain boundary element method for compliant surfaces. Presented at EURONOISE, the 155th ASA Meeting, and the 9th Congrès Français d'Acoustique, Paris, France

The best way of representing compliant surfaces in time domain prediction models, such as the transient Boundary Element Method (BEM), is currently unresolved. This is not true of frequency-domain, time-invariant models, where the common practice is... Read More about A time domain boundary element method for compliant surfaces.

Improving the modeling of medical imaging data for simulation (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Villard, P., Littler, P., Gough, V., Vidal, F., Hughes, C., John, N., …Gould, D. (2008, January). Improving the modeling of medical imaging data for simulation. Presented at United Kingdom Radiology Congress (UKRC), Birmingham, UK

PURPOSE-MATERIALS: To use patient imaging as the basis for developing virtual environments (VE). BACKGROUND: Interventional radiology basic skills are still taught in an apprenticeship in patients, though these could be learnt in high fidelity sim...
