Three-dimensional computer simulaton of reverberation in an enclosure

Open publisher page 6 citations

Abstract

A computer simulation method, based on the ray theory of acoustics, has been developed for predicting reverberation decay rates in an architectural enclosure. Comparison of results to solutions of the Eyring equation and to a limited amount of experimental data are very favorable. The method can be extended to complex structures and provides useful results with limited effort.
