Noise reduction of plenum windows on the façade of a high-rise residential building next to heavy road traffic (2020)
Journal Article
Li, X., Tang, S. K., Yim, S. Y., Lee, R. Y., & Hung, T. (2020). Noise reduction of plenum windows on the façade of a high-rise residential building next to heavy road traffic. Building and Environment, 186, Article 107353. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.buildenv.2020.107353

Extensive traffic noise transmission loss measurements were carried out inside selected residential units of a standalone 32-storey housing block located next to a very busy and noisy main trunk road in the present study. A total of 35 units, which w... Read More about Noise reduction of plenum windows on the façade of a high-rise residential building next to heavy road traffic.

Sound transmission across a narrow sidebranch array duct muffler at low Mach number (2020)
Journal Article
Yu, H. M., & Tang, S. K. (2020). Sound transmission across a narrow sidebranch array duct muffler at low Mach number. The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 148(3), 1692-1702. https://doi.org/10.1121/10.0001993

The sound transmission loss across a duct muffler in the form of a linear array of 11 narrow sidebranches is examined experimentally in the present study. The introduction of a low Mach number duct flow deteriorates the broadband acoustical performan...

Comparing the effects of visibility of different neighborhood greenery settings on the preference ratings and noise annoyance responses to road traffic noises (2020)
Journal Article
Chung, W. K., Leung, T. M., Chau, C. K., & Tang, S. K. (2020). Comparing the effects of visibility of different neighborhood greenery settings on the preference ratings and noise annoyance responses to road traffic noises. Applied acoustics. Acoustique appliqué. Angewandte Akustik, 169, Article 107474. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apacoust.2020.107474

The impact of visual environment on human noise perceptions has always been under scrutiny. Two consecutive sets of laboratory experiments were performed for studying the effect of visual perceptions of different percentages of sea, greenery, and/or...
