BNAM 2024: A step forward in acoustic innovation
Baltic-Nordic Acoustic Meeting (BNAM) 2024 is leading the way in acoustic innovation in the Nordic countries. This year, BNAM has been exploring new ways to distinguish itself among major acoustic conferences like Internoise and Forum Acusticum. One of the key strategies has been to offer not just ordinary presentations but also hands-on workshops with software […]
Problems of Absorption Coefficients as input data for room acoustic simulations
Cheol-Ho Jeong, Associate Professor of acoustics at the Technical University of Denmark, talked at EIAS 2023 about the problems of using absorption coefficients as input data for room acoustic simulations. Cheol-Ho has since his professorship in 2011 among many things engaged himself regarding the difficulties surrounding the use of the absorption coefficient, as defined by […]
