  2. Sound attenuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_attenuator

    A sound attenuator, or duct silencer, sound trap, or muffler, is a noise control acoustical treatment of Heating Ventilating and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) ductwork designed to reduce transmission of noise through the ductwork, either from equipment into occupied spaces in a building, or between occupied spaces.

  4. Head shadow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head_shadow

    The obstruction caused by the head can account for attenuation (reduced amplitude) of overall intensity as well as cause a filtering effect. The filtering effects of head shadowing are an essential element of sound localisation —the brain weighs the relative amplitude, timbre , and phase of a sound heard by the two ears and uses the ...

  6. Hyperacusis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperacusis

    Pain from sound sometimes radiates to the face, scalp, and neck. This may be due to the trigeminocervical complex in the brainstem, which integrates input from and output to various regions of the head and neck, including the middle ear. Of note, the tensor tympani muscle is innervated by the trigeminal nerve.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_attenuation

    Acoustic attenuation in water is frequency-squared dependent, namely =. Acoustic attenuation in many metals and crystalline materials is frequency-independent, namely =. [10] In contrast, it is widely noted that the of viscoelastic materials is between 0 and 2.

  8. Bone conduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bone_conduction

    Bone conduction is one reason why a person's voice sounds different to them when it is recorded and played back. Because the skull conducts lower frequencies better than air, people perceive their own voices to be lower and fuller than others do, and a recording of one's own voice frequently sounds higher than one expects (see voice confrontation).
