  • Acoustical Engineering
    National Aeronautics and Space Administration Engineering is Out of This World! Acoustical Engineering NASA is developing a new rocket called the Space Launch System, or SLS. The SLS will be able to carry astronauts and materials, known as payloads. Acoustical engineers are helping to build the SLS. Sound is a vibration. A vibration is a rapid motion of an object back and forth. Hold a piece of paper up right in front of your lips. Talk or sing into the paper. What do you feel? What do you think is causing the vibration? If too much noise, or acoustical loading, is ! caused by air passing over the SLS rocket, the vehicle could be damaged by the vibration! NAME: (Continued from front) Typical Sound Levels in Decibels (dB) Experiment with the paper. 130 — Jet takeoff Does talking louder or softer change the vibration? 120 — Pain threshold 110 — Car horn 100 — Motorcycle Is the vibration affected by the pitch of your voice?

  • Acoustic GRIN Lens
    California Polytechnic State University San Luis Obispo EE 462 Senior Project Advisor: Dean Arakaki Acoustic GRIN Lens Author Matthew Luu Date: June 12, 2020 Abstract Museum displays with audio explanations typically use headphones. A speaker’s sound at one display interferes with patrons at other displays, thus museums use headphones. These devices are either integrated into the display itself, or attached to an mp3 player. When integrated into the display, headphones can be unsanitary; when attached to an mp3 player, these devices are inconvenient. If speakers can direct sound toward an intended area, headphones can be eliminated. Acoustic horns direct sound toward a specific point, but require a large spatial footprint. Acoustic spherical concave lenses also direct sound toward a point, but exhibit excessive acoustic attenuation. Current speakers on the market that focus sound toward a location are costly compared to headphones. An acoustic gradient index of refraction lens, GRIN lens, accomplishes sound wave focusing while minimizing attenuation and decreasing material costs compared to current directive speakers. The goal of this project is to design and optimize a GRIN lens using numerical simulations in COMSOL Multiphysics and scripts developed in MATLAB. This GRIN lens must direct sound for museum exhibits; therefore, must operate in the human speech frequency band (300Hz - 3400Hz). An acoustic test chamber was designed and built in order to test and validate the physical prototype. The prototype was fabricated using PETG on the MakerGearM2 3D printer. This chamber is 1m length x 1m height x 1m depth and characterizes acoustic radiation pattern vs. azimuth angle (300Hz - 3400Hz) and the frequency response - microphone directly in front of speaker (300Hz - 10kHz) - for 3” maximum diameter speakers.

Benefits accrue both to students who pursue a research career and to those who enter applied fields by strengthening their ability to propose innovative solutions. Over the past nine years, we have sought to improve student research in a predominantly teaching institution. The two primary challenges were: (1) academic - how to introduce and promote inquiry-based learning given the constraints, and (2) business - how to obtain and sustain funding for student-based research.

  • Music to My Ears: an Acoustical Engineering Challenge
    Music to My Ears: An Acoustical Engineering Challenge Unit Overview In this unit, India and Jacob; a fictional, world-traveling brother and sister duo; visit Mongolia to help direct and amplify sound at the Naadam Festival. India and Jacob guide kids through the engineering activities as they learn more about shapes and materials that reflect or absorb sound. Kids use what they know about sound, vibrations, and acoustical engineering to design acoustic devices that can project sound from a speaker so that everyone at the festival can hear. Engineering Application/Unit Goals Kids will use each step of the Engineering Design Process as they become acoustical engineers and design acoustic devices to amplify sound. Acoustical engineers use their knowledge of sound and vibrations to create a range of technologies, from concert halls to earplugs. In this unit, kids explore how different shapes and materials affect the volume of a sound and apply that knowledge to engineer acoustic devices to amplify music played from a speaker. Engineering Adventures engages learners in grades 3-5 in fun, creative problem solving. Eleven hands-on units are low-cost and flexible to meet the time and budget constraints of out- of-school settings, including afterschool and summer camp. Each unit centers on meaningful, open-ended problems with a global context. Learners find out more about the role engineering plays in their lives and the world around them as they’re introduced to real engineering challenges and asked to design solutions with an engineering design process. Throughout each unit, kids learn to collaborate, communicate, solve problems, and share their solutions with their peers.
