van der Eerden, F. (author), van den Berg, F. (author), van Heijningen, A. (author)Noise contours around military training areas are calculated by using: a) the measured source strength for the impulsive sources and b) the calculated sound propagation using a representative set of meteorological situations. For high-energy impulsive sounds the source strength is measured at distances beyond 100 meters, where peak levels are...conference paper 2022

(author)In order to extract ever more performance from semiconductor devices on the same device area, the semiconductor industry is moving towards device structures with increasingly complex material combinations and 3D geometries. To ensure cost effective fabrication of next generation devices, metrology solutions are needed that tackle the specific...conference paper 2020

Brouns, E. (author), van der Eerden, F. (author), Eisses, A.R. (author), Kruyen, A.H.J. (author), van Vliet, W. (author)A series of resonators alongside a road or railway can be used to diffract noise upwards to create a zone of noise reduction behind the elements. The company 4Silence developed the so-called Whisstone, a concrete block with 18 resonators of different depths designed to operate in a broad frequency range. Several measurements at short distance,...conference paper 2018

van der Eerden, F.J.M. (author), van den Berg, F.H.A. (author), Wessels, P.W. (author), Kruyen, A.H.J. (author)The use of combining sound measurements and sound propagation modelling is increasing. In this paper the acoustic situation on and around a shooting range is considered. A monitoring system that automatically detects and localizes impulsive sound events is presented. The locations of these events are obtained by combining detections from...conference paper 2018

Prior, M.K. (author), Jansen, H.W. (author)A modelling approach is described in which time-domain underwater-acoustic source functions are generated using a model that predicts the motion of air-bubbles generated by mini-airguns operated at various pressures. These time-series are Fourier-transformed to produce frequency-domain descriptions of the source. These are combined with complex...conference paper 2018

(author), Duivenvoorde, T. (author), Sadeghian Marnani, H. (author)Many techniques are under development for the detection of subsurface defects or cracks. One such method is GHz subsurface probe microscopy (GHz SSPM). Here, modulated GHz elastic waves are transmitted through the bottom of a sample. The waves are scattered by buried features and detected using the probe of an atomic force microscope (AFM),...conference paper 2018

(author)A long-term monitoring project, with 12 months of continuous operation time, is described where the sound sources within a large industrial area as well as the sound levels in the nearby residential area are measured. The sources in the industrial area may give rise to complaints from the neighboring residential areas, at several kilometers...conference paper 2017

Tajdari, F. (author), Berkhoff, A.P. (author), de Boer, A. (author)This paper studies a lumped model of an acoustic source with a relatively small thickness and high bending stiffness. Voice coil and piezoelectric actuators are used to drive moving components of the acoustic source. Feedback and feedforward damping control techniques are used to actively obtain a smooth frequency response, especially at low...conference paper 2017

(author)Source localization using microphone arrays has now become common practice for many applications. Their application for long term monitoring of industrial noise nevertheless remains uncommon. Hence, in 2016 we deployed four microphone arrays near a large industrial area for a period of 12 months and explored the challenges involved. The...conference paper 2017

Beerends, J.G. (author), van Nieuwenhuizen, K. (author), van den Broek, E.L. (author)We present PREQUEL: Perceptual Reproduction Quality Evaluation for Loudspeakers. Instead of quantifying the loudspeaker system itself, PREQUEL quantifies the overall loudspeakers' perceived sound quality by assessing their acoustic output using a set of music signals. This approach introduces a major problem: subjects cannot be provided with an...article 2016

van Ophem, S. (author), Berkhoff, A.P. (author)Summary For broadband active noise control applications with a rapidly changing primary path, it is desirable to find algorithms with a rapid convergence, a fast tracking performance, and a low computational cost. Recently, a promising algorithm has been presented, called the fast-array Kalman filter, which uses rotation matrices to calculate...article 2016

Salomons, E.M. (author), Zhou, H. (author), Lohman, W.J.A. (author)Traffic noise mapping of cities requires large computer calculation times. This originates from the large number of point-to-point sound propagation calculations that must be performed. In this article it is demonstrated that noise mapping calculation times can be reduced considerably by the use of parallel computation on the Graphics Processing...conference paper 2014
