Studies in modal density – its effect at low frequencies (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Wankling, M., & Fazenda, B. (2009, November). Studies in modal density – its effect at low frequencies. Presented at Reproduced Sound 25, Brighton

The ability to objectively measure the reproduction quality of a small room at low frequencies has long been desired. Over many years, there have been attempts to produce recommendations, metrics, and criteria by which to define a particular room. Th...

Objective quality measurement of audio using multiband dynamic range analysis (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Ever since the very first recordings were made, people have strived to improve the recording and playback process to a point of ‘complete transparency’. However, in music production, it’s certainly the case that sound-engineers and producers employ t... Read More about Objective quality measurement of audio using multiband dynamic range analysis.

Characterisation of the directionality of reflections in small room acoustics (2009)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper investigates the extraction and analysis of temporal and spatial distribution of early sound decay. A method based on B-format signals is adapted for small rooms. It can map the spatial and temporal distribution of sound energy and its di... Read More about Characterisation of the directionality of reflections in small room acoustics.

Hybrid ventilation for low energy building design in south China (2009)
Journal Article
Ji, Y., Lomas, K., & Cook, M. (2009). Hybrid ventilation for low energy building design in south China. Building and Environment, 44(11), 2245-2255. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2009.02.015

Buildings and their related activities are responsible for a large portion of the energy consumed in China. It is therefore worthwhile to investigate methods for improving the energy efficiency of buildings. This paper describes a low energy building...

Expectation as a factor in the perception of soundscapes (2009)
Presentation / Conference
Bruce, N., Davies, W., & Adams, M. (2009, October). Expectation as a factor in the perception of soundscapes. Presented at Euronoise 2009, Edinburgh, U.K

This paper discusses how expectation and experience form a contributory factor in the perception of soundscapes. The research used fieldwork carried out in London and Manchester, and also a soundscape simulator in a laboratory. Through the use of an...
