Full bandwidth wave-based simulations using Treble

Download paper

Abstract

The study measured the capabilities of Treble’s wave-based solver in a medium-sized room of 80 cubic meters. The solver was tested for full-bandwidth up to 8kHz and both mono and binaural room impulse responses (RIR) were measured using a directive source and a KEMAR mannequin at various positions. The simulations were carried out on a cluster with six Nvidia A100 GPU cards running in parallel. Results are compared and presented for Energy Decay Curves and derived acoustical parameters, reverberation time T20 and early decay time, for the mono RIR. The binaural RIR results are compared both in the frequency domain and in the time domain.

Warner Theatre Rehearsal Hall - Acentech Case Study

This study helped to refine Acentech's understanding of the performance of the ceiling system, which absorbs sound quite effectively at most frequencies, and contributes valuable reflections for ensemble intelligibility. Treble helped Acentech to translate between measurements of room decay times and up-close mockup measurements to create a coherent analysis and understanding.
