The impact and airborne sound transmission characteristics of interior wall and floor components in traditional timber-framed dwellings (Ankara, Turkey) were examined by in-situ acoustical measurements and simulation analyses. Presence of voids for the running of pipework or door/ window openings existed in the composition of timber framed wall and floor components was found to reduce their sound insulation performances in the range of 12-22dB. Air/sound leakages through the openings should be sealed properly in order to provide the required Rw and Lnw values for dwellings. In case that the dwelling units/spaces are used as exhibition, meeting, office or hotel rooms, some acoustical improvements in existing wall and floor components can be provided by demountable attachments with sound insulation infill and sound breaks.

Assessment of sound transmissiion characteristics of tradtional timber framed dwelllings in Ankara Turkey
Erdil, Meltem; Çalışkan, Mehmet (null; 2015-03-03)

Optimization of the sound source position for shaping acoustically-structurally coupled cavities
Sorguç, Arzu; Shi, Qinzhong; Akagunduz, Haldun (null; 2001-12-01)
In this study, sound field inside acoustically-structurally coupled rectangular cavity excited by structural loading and sound sources is shaped by optimizing the position of the sound source. In the optimization, Most Probable Optimal Design (MPOD) based on Holographic Neural Network is employed and the results are compared with Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP). It is shown that source position, rather than source strength, is more effective in acoustically controlled modes. The nodal positions for i...
The performance of medium and long span timber roof structures : a comparative study between structural timber and steel
Ertaştan, Evren; Erman, Ercüment; Department of Architecture (2005)
This thesis analyzes the performance of structural timber and steel in medium and long span roof structures. A technical background about roof structures including structural elements and roof structure types, span definitions, and classification of roof structures are discussed. Roof structures are detailed with traditional and the contemporary forms. The thesis comprises the comparison between structural timber and steel by using structural, constructional and material properties. Structural forms and the...
Response of acoustic imaging systems using convergent leaky waves to cylindrical flaws
Günalp, Nilgün; Atalar, Abdullah (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 1989-9)
A theoretical study of imaging systems utilizing focused leaky surface acoustic waves (SAWs), and their response to certain kind of defects is presented. In particular, circular cylindrical inhomogeneities with axes perpendicular to the surface are considered. The scattering of the SAW from this cylinder is formulated with some approximations. The surface wave incident on the inhomogeneity is initially found as an angular spectrum of plane waves. However, to apply the boundary conditions at the cylindrical ...
Comparison of design codes for seismically isolated structures
Acar, Emre; Akyüz, Uğurhan; Department of Civil Engineering (2005)
This study presents information on the design procedure of seismic base isolation systems. Analysis of the seismic responses of isolated structures, which is oriented to give a clear understanding of the effect of base isolation on the nature of the structure; and discussion of various isolator types are involved in this work. Seismic isolation consists essentially of the installation of mechanisms, which decouple the structure, and its contents, from potentially damaging earthquake induced ground motions. ...
