Noise Attenuation Using Acoustic Resonators: A Multifactorial Investigation and Characterisation of Performance Factors (2025)
Thesis
Houston, B. (2025). Noise Attenuation Using Acoustic Resonators: A Multifactorial Investigation and Characterisation of Performance Factors. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/5132751

Unwanted or harmful sound is considered noise. If not addressed, it can cause psychological and physiological harm and have detrimental effects on structures and machinery. Despite the widespread use of acoustic resonators for noise reduction, there...
