  1. 1. New Methods for Reducing Ground-Borne Noise in Buildings above Railway Tunnels

    Author : Osama A. B. Hassan; KTH; []
    Keywords : Ground-borne noise; railway noise; in-plane waves; wave-guides; scattering; propagation constant; input mobility; elastic stratum; dual integral equations;

    Abstract : The rapid expansion of major cities in the west Europeancountries has accentuated the need to exploit every potentialsite for new establishments, e.g. areas over train tunnels andnear railway tracks in general. READ MORE

  2. 2. Adiabatic guiding of matter waves

    Author : Markku Jääskeläinen; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Recent efforts in the field of ultracold atoms have goneinto creating wave guides of sub-micron sizes. In this thesis,the quantum dynamics of matter waves in such confiningpotential structures with minima extended in space isinvestigated. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modelling tools for quieter vehicles : Waves in poro– and visco–elastic continua

    Author : Martin Östberg; Leif Kari; Jenny Jerrelind; Sergey Sorokin; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vibro-acoutics; poro-elastic; visco-elastic; reduced models; Harmonic expansion; wave guide;

    Abstract : New modelling tools intended to contribute to the development of components for quieter vehicles are developed. The tools are based on continuum models for wave propagation in poro– and visco–elastic media. By using geometric attributes of the studied components, the computational cost may be radically decreased compared to traditional methods. READ MORE

  4. 4. Assessing precision and accuracy in acoustic scattering matrix measurements

    Author : Luck Peerlings; Hans Bodén; Susann Boij; Avraham Hirschberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; aero-acoustics; sudden area expansion; in-duct acoustics; acoustic scattering matrix; impedance tube; uncertainty analysis; systematic errors; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Abstract : Acoustic scattering matrices are used to characterize the influence of inline duct elements on the acoustic wave propagation in wave guides.When measuring the properties of these matrices, errors are always present in the results and need to be characterized to make valid statements on the correspondence between model predictions and measurements.
