Sound plays an important role in immersion when consuming content in eXtended reality (AR/VR). Modeling the acoustics of the virtual/real space one occupies is a key element in engagement and immersion. Multichannel spatial content must be adapted to mimic the acoustics of a space, and rendered binaurally over headphones. This talk will focus on modeling late reverberation for AR/VR, and discuss the optimum techniques for different scenarios with a focus on low-latency, real-time methods that provide perceptual plausibility. Particular focus will be given to delay-network based parametric reverberators that can be tuned to emulate a space and can be run in real-time.

UKAN+ Aeroacoustics SIG

The Aeroacoustics SIG is happy to welcome Dr Zhong-Nan Wang to present a webinar on Installed Jet Noise. The webinar will be held on the 17th of May, 1300.

Jet noise can be significantly amplified when placed close to a solid surface. This scenario occurs when a jet engine is installed near an aircraft wing. The pursuit of higher propulsion efficiency is achieved as ever by enlarging the engine bypass ratio, leading to an increasing engine diameter. The engine becomes even closer to the wing, leading to significant interactions between them and hence noise amplification. This talk will be focused on providing insight into the noise sources of closely installed jets based on high-fidelity eddy-resolving simulation and its associated data-driven analysis, from canonical to industrially relevant cases. Control strategies are further explored based on understanding noise sources to better reduce noise at the source.

The study of phonons–a core discipline in the conventional condensed matter physics literature–is currently being viewed in a new light. With a focus on both elucidation and manipulation of phonons across multiple scales, the emerging field of phononics has been vigorously gathering pace in recent years. In 2011, Phononics 2011 was launched as a prime international conference for the field to take place on a biannual basis. Phononics 2023, the sixth in the series, welcomes scientists and engineers from across disciplines and from across the world.

We the scientists in bioacoustics will meet again to exchange ideas and the results of our investigations. The health of humans and all living beings on Earth we protect from noise. Friendly environment in soundscapes we promote. Our science is in the service of Nature.

UACE2023 provides a forum for exchange of recent research results, for discussion of future challenges in implementation and application of underwater acoustic technologies, and the conference displayed the latest advances in instrumentation.

UK Metamaterials Network, UK Acoustics Network

The one-week summer school, aimed at PhD students, Postdocs & Early Career Academics, will be hosted between the Henry Royce Institute and Manchester Metropolitan University. There will be five focussed days: i) Numerical Modelling (e.g., finite element), ii) Analytical Modelling, iii) Manufacturing, iv) Experimental Methods, and v) Career Progression/Funding. These will include invited summary lectures and specific state of the art talks from internationally recognised academic and industry experts. As exciting topics with local expertise, we will run metamaterials sports engineering linked projects as part of this event.

The 52nd International Congress and Exposition on Noise Control Engineering will be held in Chiba, Greater Tokyo, Japan, on 20–23 August 2023 (Inter-Noise 2023). Inter-Noise 2023 is expected to be live/in-person congress at this moment. This congress will offer the best opportunities to learn about and share the cutting-edge research with colleagues from all over the world. We believe this congress will be an invaluable experience for all participants and a great opportunity to create friendships and new memories with Inter-Noise family.

Génie civil, architecture et géotechnique,    Écosystèmes, environnement et développement durable

The aim of this 2 ½ day conference is to build on the success of the previous conferences and provide a forum for comparison of systems techniques, signal and image processing, experimental results and to stimulate new ideas in each domain.

International Congress on Ultrasonics (ICU) , Institute of Acoustics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Acoustical Society of China (ASC)

The 2023 ICU Beijing aims to bring together professionals and experts from academia, industry, and government in all disciplines of ultrasonics, to exchange the achievements and experiences in physical acoustics, and the existing and emerging applications of ultrasounds in the fields of “Physical Acoustics”, “Biomedical Ultrasound”, “Non-destructive Evaluation”, “Industrial Ultrasound”, “Emerging Fields”, and so on. In the light of the ongoing pandemic of COVID-19, the Organizing Committee has a contingency plan for a hybrid congress that is a mix of in-person and virtual participation. However, the priority for the meeting congress is a face-to-face meeting.

This conference is of interest to anyone in the UK and the world who has an interest in the science of Hearing, Acoustics and Audiology.
