Propagation of underwater noise from an offshore seismic survey in Australia to Antarctica: measurements and modelling
(2017)
An offshore seismic survey was conducted over the western edge of the continental shelf in Bass Strait in 2006.
Underwater noise from this survey was recorded on an autonomous sound recorder deployed in the Southern
Ocean ...
Target tracking using seabed based passive acoustic arrays
(2017)
Passive sonar systems are a key sensor type for anti-submarine warfare, used to detect acoustic energy emit-ted by surface or subsurface sources. These systems typically provide bearing detections from targets that are ...
Determinants of annoyance from humming sound as indicator of low frequency noise.
(2017)
The level of concern and health complaints related to low frequency noise (LFN) seems to be increasing, not
only in the Netherlands, but also at international level. There is evidence suggesting an association between
LFN ...
Comparison of ceiling absorption placement configurations in a corridor
(2017)
It is generally acknowledged that speech related noise is a common distractor in many work environments, e.g.,
open-plan offices. There are many studies and some standards that address these noise related issues, but
they ...
Measurement of radiated noise from surface ships - influence of the sea surface reflection coefficient on the Lloyd's mirror effect
(2017)
The assessment of ship underwater noise signature is highly important not only to a range of naval applications
but for the assessment and mitigation of shipping related noise impact on marine animals. One of the main ...
Monte Carlo model of acoustic response from a bubble cloud
(2017)
In various sonar applications it is important to model the acoustic response of a bubble cloud to a sonar pulse of different types. In a typical approximate approach, a bubble cloud is modelled as a set of point scatterers. ...
Active control of sound transmission through a hole in a large thick wall
(2017)
Holes in walls of enclosures or buildings are often the weak link in the chain of sound insulation. This paper in-troduces an analytical model to calculate the sound transmission from a baffled rectangular hole based on ...
An equivalent fluid representation of a layered elastic seafloor for acoustic propagation modelling
(2017)
Modelling range dependent sound propagation over layered elastic seafloors with high shear speeds has proved to be a difficult problem for many widely used under water acoustic sound propagation models. Recent research and ...
Development of a standardised test for comparing pool isolation systems
(2017)
Pools in apartments and hotels are commonly isolated from the building structure to ensure noise and vibration from a pool is not transmitted to surrounding spaces. Currently no standardised test exists to compare the ...
Building a university music facility in a reused printery building
(2017)
In 2015 Western Sydney University embarked on a project to refit two existing buildings to create a new music precinct. The building housing the recording facilities previously accommodated the University's printery, ...
