Volumetric diffusers : pseudorandom cylinder arrays on a periodic lattice (2010)
Journal Article
Hughes, R., Angus, J., Cox, T., Umnova, O., Gehring, G., Pogson, M., & Whittaker, D. (2010). Volumetric diffusers : pseudorandom cylinder arrays on a periodic lattice. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 128(5), 2847-2856. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.3493455

Most conventional diffusers take the form of a surface based treatment, and as a result can only operate in hemispherical space. Placing a diffuser in the volume of a room might provide greater efficiency by allowing scattering into the whole space....

Coupling of a time domain boundary element method to compliant surface models (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Hargreaves, J., & Cox, T. (2010, September). Coupling of a time domain boundary element method to compliant surface models. Presented at EAA Euroregio Conference, Ljubljana

The Boundary Element Method (BEM) can be used to predict the scattering of sound in rooms. It reduces the problem of modelling the volume of air to one involving only the surfaces; hence the number of unknowns scales more favourably with problem size...

Diffusive benefits of cylinders in front of a Schroeder diffuser (2010)
Journal Article
Pogson, M., Whittaker, D., Gehring, G., Cox, T., Hughes, R., & Angus, J. (2010). Diffusive benefits of cylinders in front of a Schroeder diffuser. ˜The œJournal of the Acoustical Society of America (Online), 128(3), 1149-1154. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.3463817

A numerical investigation is performed into the diffusive effects of cylinders positioned in front of a Schroeder diffuser. A regular line of cylinders is shown to offer notable improvements to diffusion from a periodic Schroeder device, provided lat...

Multiple scattering between cylinders and a schroeder diffuser (2010)
Journal Article
Pogson, M., Whittaker, D., Gehring, G., Hughes, R., Angus, J., & Cox, T. (2010). Multiple scattering between cylinders and a schroeder diffuser. Acta acustica united with Acustica, 96(2), 292-299. https://doi.org/10.3813/AAA.918278

A multiple scattering method is developed to model an array of N cylinders positioned in front of a Schroeder diffuser. Results are compared against the more computationally intensive boundary element method, as well as existing multiple scattering m...
