Full scale model investigation on the acoustical protection of a balcony-like faade device (L) (2011)
Journal Article
Tong, Y. G., Tang, S. K., & Yeung, M. K. (2011). Full scale model investigation on the acoustical protection of a balcony-like faade device (L). The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 130(2), 673-676. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.3598430

The acoustical insertion losses produced by a balcony-like structure in front of a window are examined experimentally. The results suggest that the balcony ceiling is the most appropriate location for the installation of artificial sound absorption f...

Sound fields inside street canyons with inclined flanking building façades (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Street canyons are common in modern cities. It is well known that the multiple sound reflections within the canyons tend to increase the noise levels inside the canyons. An scaled down model experiment was conducted in the present investigation to st... Read More about Sound fields inside street canyons with inclined flanking building façades.

Dual cylinder inviscid vortex sound of low Mach number (2011)

In-duct devices are commonly installed in flow ducts for various flow management purposes. The structural construction of these devices indispensably creates disruption to smooth flow through duct passages so they exist as structural discontinuities...
