An integrated model of sound localisation in rooms (2012)
Presentation / Conference
Sheaffer, J., & Fazenda, B. (2012, September). An integrated model of sound localisation in rooms. Presented at Acoustics and Audio 2012, Ben Gurion University

Human perception of sound localisation in enclosed spaces has been studied extensively from physiological as well as psychological perspectives. As it is not feasible to conduct some experiments in-situ, researchers have employed alternative methodol... Read More about An integrated model of sound localisation in rooms.

Acoustic condition monitoring of wind turbines: Tip faults (2012)
Presentation / Conference
Fazenda, B., & Comboni Bustos, D. (2012, June). Acoustic condition monitoring of wind turbines: Tip faults. Presented at The 9th International Conference on Condition Monitoring and Machinery Failure Prevention Technologies, London

As a significant and growing source of the world’s energy, wind turbine reliability is becoming a major concern. At least two fault detection techniques for condition monitoring of wind turbine blades have been reported in early literature, i.e. acou...

Subjective preference of modal control methods in listening rooms (2012)
Journal Article
Fazenda, B., Wankling, M., Hargreaves, J., Elmer, L., & Hirst, J. (2012). Subjective preference of modal control methods in listening rooms. Journal of the Audio Engineering Society, 60(5), 338-349

Methods to control the unwanted effects of low-frequency modes in critical listening rooms range from complex signal processing to the positioning of loudspeakers and listeners. A rigorous scientific experiment has been conducted to evaluate the perc... Read More about Subjective preference of modal control methods in listening rooms.

The assessment of low-frequency room acoustic parameters using descriptive analysis (2012)
Journal Article
Wankling, M., Fazenda, B., & Davies, W. (2012). The assessment of low-frequency room acoustic parameters using descriptive analysis. Journal of the Audio Engineering Society, 60(5), 325-337

In small rooms, low-frequency modes have a degrading influence on the quality of the bass components of music. Using objective measures to correct these modes often fails because they do not correspond to the subjective experience of listeners. This...
