Sound quality is an important aspect in many sound reproduction applications. In recent
years sensory evaluation techniques have been gaining popularity for the detailed …

The acoustic behavior of a combustion engine is primarily dominated by the sound radiation
of the oil pan. Therefore, the vibration behavior of the oil pan as the prominent noise …

A novel technique is proposed for the analysis and modeling of timbre perception features,
including a new terminology system for evaluating timbre in musical instruments. This …

Intelligent Music Production presents the state of the art in approaches, methodologies and
systems from the emerging field of automation in music mixing and mastering. This book …

The models that relate noise annoyance assessments to noise signal parameters are mainly
based on energy-related indices (eg, L DEN⁠). However, various studies have shown that …

With the increasing use of digital technologies and smart objects, sound is playing an ever
more important role in our everyday life interactions with a given object, human computer …

The paper proposes a new method for objective sound quality evaluation for the vehicle
interior noise based on the displacement of the basilar membrane in the human ear. The …

The paper presents an overall simulation approach to control the noise emission of car
engines at a very early stage of the design process where no real prototypes are available …

The aim of the paper is the evaluation and the prediction of the perceived quality of engine
sounds, which is predicted in the design process by numerical simulations. Periodic …

In vibrotactile design, it can be beneficial to communicate with potential users about the
desired properties of a product. However, such users' expectations would need to be …
