Urban soundscape of recreational area in high population area (2014)
Journal Article
Choy, Y. S., Chau, C. K., Tsui, W. K., & Tang, S. K. (2014). Urban soundscape of recreational area in high population area. Acta Acustica united with Acustica, 100(6), 1044-1055. https://doi.org/10.3813/AAA.918784

Urban landscape or parks for recreational purposes are important components in urban area in Hong Kong but traffic noise can seriously affect their usability. To evaluate their usability practically, the Soundscape of recreational areas has to be exa... Read More about Urban soundscape of recreational area in high population area.

Full scale field study of sound transmission across plenum windows (2014)
Journal Article
Tong, Y. G., Tang, S. K., Kang, J., Fung, A., & Yeung, M. K. (2015). Full scale field study of sound transmission across plenum windows. Applied acoustics. Acoustique appliqué. Angewandte Akustik, 89, 244-253. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apacoust.2014.10.003

A full scale field measurement of the acoustical insertion loss of plenum windows was carried out in the present investigation. Two identical mock-up test rooms with dimensions the same as those commonly adopted for Hong Kong public housing were buil...

Insertion losses of balconies on a building façade and the underlying wave interactions (2014)
Journal Article
Tang, S. K., Ho, C. Y., & Tso, T. Y. (2014). Insertion losses of balconies on a building façade and the underlying wave interactions. The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 136(1), 213-225. https://doi.org/10.1121/1.4883379

This study used scale model experiments to investigate the insertion losses of balconies on a building façade in the presence of ground reflections. The experiments measured both A-weighted broad- and narrowband insertion loss spectra. The underlying...

Aeroacoustics of duct junction flows merging at different angles (2014)
Journal Article
Lam, G. C., Leung, R. C., & Tang, S. K. (2014). Aeroacoustics of duct junction flows merging at different angles. Journal of Sound and Vibration, 333(18), 4187-4202. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jsv.2014.04.045

This paper reports an exploratory study of the aeroacoustics of a merging flow at a duct junction with the same width in all branches and different merging angles. The focus is put on the acoustic generation due to the flow unsteadiness. The study is... Read More about Aeroacoustics of duct junction flows merging at different angles.

Validation of CE/SE scheme in low mach number direct aeroacoustic simulation (2014)
Journal Article
Lam, G. C., Leung, R. C., Seid, K. H., & Tang, S. K. (2014). Validation of CE/SE scheme in low mach number direct aeroacoustic simulation. International Journal of Nonlinear Sciences and Numerical Simulation, 15(2), 157-169. https://doi.org/10.1515/ijnsns-2012-0118

The space-time conservation element and solution element (CE/SE) scheme has caught many attentionin aeroacoustic research community as an alternative numerical strategy for direct aeroacoustic simulation (DAS).As a result of its strict conversation o...
