Study of Layouts for the Improvement of Speech Intelligibility in a Multi-Source Environment KU Leuven
Audibility of coincidence dips and structural resonance dips in acoustic insulation curves KU Leuven
The audibility of coincidence dips and structural resonance dips in acoustic isolation curves of different types of walls is investigated. Measured and simulated wall transmission curves with varying dip magnitude and central frequency are emulated in listening tests by presenting simulated sound on the receiving side of a wall, which originates from sending realistic sound pressure level pink noise through a wall and by applying its ...
Perception of room size and room shape through passive echolocation experiment KU Leuven
his article is proposing a method to investigate the ability of human beings to hear and interpret size and shape information of rectangular rooms at 2 positions inside it (center and corner) by means of passive echolocation through tongue clicks. This study was carried out on room clusters grouped by equivalent reverberation time. The proposed method relies on one ABX-type listening tests. This experiment consists in telling if the ...
A Healthy, Energy-Efficient and Comfortable Indoor Environment, a Review KU Leuven
© 2019 by the authors. Design strategies for sustainable buildings, that improve building performance and avoid extensive resource utilization, should also promote healthy indoor environments. The following paper contains a review of the couplings between (1) building design, (2) indoor environmental quality and (3) occupant behavior. The paper focuses on defining the limits of adaptation on the three aforementioned levels to ensure the energy ...
