HUT ACOUSTICS LAB
Modeling of Small Room Acoustics
INTRODUCTION
The main goal of the project is to investigate various low-frequency
room acoustic simulation techniques, such as Finite Element Method
(FEM), Boundary Element Method (BEM) and Finite-Difference Time-Domain
(FDTD) method.
The research covers both basic research related to these methods and
simulation of some practical cases. During these case-studys
comprehensive measurements have been carried out to enable
verification and calibration of applied numerical methods.
CASE-studies covered:
- A reference listening room at HUT
- A closed-box loudspeaker
(paper "Comparison of Numerical Simulation Models and Measured
Low-Frequency Behavior of a Loudspeaker" presented at the 104th AES
Convention in Amsterdam, preprint no. 4722)

ORGANIZATION
The project is financed mainly by TEKES (Technology Development Centre in
Finland) in addition to some Finnish companies, the loudspeaker
manufacturers
Genelec Oy
and
Gradient Ltd, and
Nokia Research Center, Speech and Audio
Systems Laboratory.
The research is
carried out in Helsinki University of Technology (HUT, Laboratory of Acoustics and Audio
Signal Processing and Laboratory of
Telecommunication Software and Multimedia) and Tampere University
of Technology (TUT, Department of
Mathematics).
