TEK 520 - Acoustic Textiles

Course Objectives

1. To give knowledge of fundamentals of sound, random diffuse of incidence sound field, reverberation room, and measurement techniques for sound absorption
2. To provide information about performance of textile surfaces (knitted, woven, nonwoven, composite) as sound absorbers
3. To improve the ability of designing textile systems as sound absorbers

Course Description

Fundamentals of sound, random diffuse of incidence sound field, reverberation room, measurement techniques for sound absorption, textile surfaces as sound absorbers, knitted/woven/nonwoven/textile composites and their uses in noise control.
