The Effect of Geometrical and Material Modification of Sound Diffusers on Their Acoustic Parameters
Open accessAbstract
Sound diffusers, in particular those based on changes in the phase of the reflected wave (Schroeder diffusers), have recently gained greatly in popularity in acoustics as an effective means to eliminate defects and improve the acoustic performance of interiors.This paper draws attention to a possibility of shaping acoustic parameters of sound diffusers and fundamental errors made in applying diffusers.Also, an often neglected issue of sound absorption by diffusers has been tackled.The presented results of laboratory measurements indicate a great significance of the diffusers' rigidity and geometry on their absorption coefficient at low frequencies.The effect of arrangement of elements on the diffusion coefficient was analysed for two types of elements based on the prime number N = 7.

Most current papers on acoustic panel development only cover analytical problem formulation or final design measurement in engineering reports.
“Most of the current papers on acoustic panel development only cover the analytical problem formulation [7,8] or the final design measurement in the engineering reports [9,10,11].”

The Abstract (page not available in our copy) says the paper reports laboratory measurements of sound diffusers, so it can serve as an example of measurement-based acoustic-panel research. The paper does not establish that most current papers cover only analytical formulations or final-design measurements, nor does it characterize those measurements as engineering reports.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
