Retroreflection is rarely used as a surface treatment in architectural acoustics but is found incidentally with building surfaces that have many simultaneously visible concave right-angle trihedral corners. Such surfaces concentrate reflected sound onto ...

The foundation of architectural acoustics as an independent science is generally referred to Sabine?s early studies and their application. Nevertheless, since the 16th Century, a great number of authors wrote essays and treatises on the design of acousti...

The modern use of ancient heritage sites can be, to say the least, challenging from an acoustical perspective. In fact, modern needs may require acoustical interventions in contrast with the preservation issues of the cultural heritage. This paper deals ...
