Automatic detection of microphone handling noise (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Kendrick, P., Cox, T., Li, F., Fazenda, B., & Jackson, I. (2014, May). Automatic detection of microphone handling noise. Presented at 4th International Workshop on Cognitive Information Processing, Copenhagen, Denmark

Microphone handling noise is a common problem with user generated content. It can occur when the operator
inadvertently knocks or brushes a recording device.
Handling noise may be impulsive, where a microphone is
knocked, or a more sustained rubbi... Read More about Automatic detection of microphone handling noise.

Road traffic noise is an element of outstanding importance within the overall context of
environmental impact. This problem must be technically addressed from an efficient
viewpoint, and solutions or alternatives should be considered by means of ap... Read More about A methodology for classification by priority for action: Selecting road stretches for network noise action plans.

Effects of spatial pattern of greenspace on urban cooling in a large metropolitan area of eastern China (2014)
Journal Article
Kong, F., Yin, H., James, P., Hutyra, L., & He, H. (2014). Effects of spatial pattern of greenspace on urban cooling in a large metropolitan area of eastern China. Landscape and Urban Planning, 128, 35-47. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.landurbplan.2014.04.018

Urban areas will experience the greatest increases in temperature resulting from climate change due to the urban heat island (UHI) effect. Urban greenspace mitigates the UHI and provides cooler microclimates. Field research has established that tempe...

Omnidirectional acoustic absorber with a porous core and a metamaterial matching layer (2014)
Journal Article
layer. Journal of Applied Physics, 115(20), 204902. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4876119

An omnidirectional sound absorber based on the acoustic analogy of the electromagnetic metamaterial
“black hole” has been developed and tested. The resulting structure is composed of a hollow
cylindrical porous absorbing core and a graded index mat... Read More about Omnidirectional acoustic absorber with a porous core and a metamaterial matching layer.
