Modeling of the Eaton Bathroom
The goal of this project is to create and test an acoustical model of a space on the University of Miami Coral Gables campus and compare the model to measured characteristics of the physical space. Completion of this project demonstrates mastery of the software used to create an acoustical model, understanding of how to test a physical space, and comprehension of the many criteria that are used to acoustically define a physical space.
This project was a challenging and interesting exploration of architectural acoustics. It taught me about the important aspects of acoustically measuring a physical space and creating a simulation that properly recreates this space in software. This project has ultimately changed how I look at architecture and how I analyze the acoustic behavior of a space.
