Popis: The researchers share three studies in parametric, generative, and iterative architectural acoustics. (1) A real-time parametric model shapes a geometrically complex ceiling plane with grips in order to visualize first-order reflections so that early arriving strong reflections may be directed to the audience and late-arriving echoes may be avoided. (2) A ray-tracing software model pivots door openings so that a coupled volume concert hall can be calibrated to establish the “sweet spot” range of aperture sizes that are more likely to produce a double-sloped sound decay. (3) A custom-designed auralization software simulates sound transmission loss so that designers may hear the (relative) noise isolation of different assemblies.
