Journal Article
Tang, S. K. (2018). Reduction of sound transmission across plenum windows by incorporating an array of rigid cylinders. Journal of Sound and Vibration, 415, 25-40. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsv.2017.11.027

The potential improvement of plenum window noise reduction by installing rigid circular cylinder arrays into the window cavity is investigated numerically using the finite-element method in this study. A two-dimensional approach is adopted. The sound... Read More about Reduction of sound transmission across plenum windows by incorporating an array of rigid cylinders.

Developing a multivariate model for predicting the noise annoyance responses due to combined water sound and road traffic noise exposure (2017)
Journal Article
Leung, T. M., Chau, C. K., Tang, S. K., & Xu, J. M. (2017). Developing a multivariate model for predicting the noise annoyance responses due to combined water sound and road traffic noise exposure. Applied acoustics. Acoustique appliqué. Angewandte Akustik, 127, 284-291. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apacoust.2017.06.020

People in an urban environment are exposed to different types of natural and man-made sounds. Human sound perceptions due to exposure to a single noise source, in particular road traffic and aircraft noises, have been investigated for a long time. Ho...

The effects of neighborhood views containing multiple environmental features on road traffic noise perception at dwellings (2017)
Journal Article
Leung, T. M., Xu, J. M., Chau, C. K., Tang, S. K., & Pun-Cheng, L. S. (2017). The effects of neighborhood views containing multiple environmental features on road traffic noise perception at dwellings. The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 141(4), 2399-2407. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4979336

The importance of non-acoustical factors including the type of visual environment on human noise perception becomes increasingly recognized. In order to reveal the relationships between long-term noise annoyance and different types of neighborhood vi...

Vortex sound radiation in a flow duct with a dipole source and a flexible wall of finite length (2017)
Journal Article
Chiang, Y. K., Choy, Y. S., & Tang, S. K. (2017). Vortex sound radiation in a flow duct with a dipole source and a flexible wall of finite length. The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 141(3), 1999-2010. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4978521

The noise attenuation of fan-ducted noise at low blade-passage frequency remains a challenge. The present study investigates the noise reduction mechanism of a tensioned membrane housing device that directly controls the sound radiation from the doub...
