Although a large number of studies have been made on a theory of scattering, no studies have been attempted to evaluate the scattered sound fields in a concert hall. This paper will show an evaluation method of sound fields that involve scattered reflection by a circular-columns array installed in front of both side walls. Measurements were performed by use of a 1/10 scale model of the concert hall. Here, scattered sound fields are evaluated by four acoustic factors (SPL, DT1, Tsub; IACC, and in addition WIACC and tauIACC). It is found that the IACC and Dt1 of the sound fields of the concert hall are improved with use of the circular columns array.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
