Director of the only graduate-degree granting acoustics program in the country, Penn State's Barnard shares thoughts and insights
Fourteen-year-old Nora Keegan from Calgary, Alberta is one of three plenary speakers at The Institute of Noise Control Engineering’s (INCE-USA) NOISE-CON from November 16-20, 2020.
An Indian researcher has fabricated paper honeycomb and stronger polymer honeycomb structure as sound-absorbing panels that dissipate acoustic energy to low-frequency ranges. The technology can be used in building acoustics and also as environmental noise control solution.
As air traffic is projected to increase dramatically over the next decade, reducing noise pollution becomes an even more necessary and demanding challenge. Decades of research have been dedicated to reducing the noise of an aircraft's engine but have tended to neglect the noise caused by the airframe during landing.
A pioneering material that gives unprecedented control on sound and noise is to be trialed in hospitals and other noisy locations such as beside motorways. The technology allows scientists to turn plastic sheets into powerful noise-cancelling panels with the same noise-reduction effect of as two inches of plywood but weighing four to six times less.
While everyone is continuing to do their part and are working from home The Institute of Noise Control Engineering of the USA (INCE-USA) reached out to members to collect tips on how to control the noise level in the home office.
Noise standards are used to calibrate other noise instruments.
When was the last time a great meal was spoiled for you by the deafening din of restaurant noise? Did you mention it on your Yelp review?
