Computational and Experimental Evaluation of Architectural Acoustics in Enclosures

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue has been prepared to present recent advances and developments in building and room acoustics, including simulation methods, experimental methods, human perception, and new applications. This SI will invite experts from academia and relevant industry to share their research and practical experience. Authors are invited to contribute to this Special Issue with content in the areas of:

• Advances in computational acoustics, auralization, auditory virtual reality, virtual acoustics, uncertainty quantification, experimental simulation, sound field control in rooms;
• Experimental characterization of sound fields, new acoustic elements, such as absorbers, diffusers, and innovative acoustic devices, and their acoustic characterization methods either in situ or in laboratories;
• Human perception of sound in built environments, psychoacoustics, multisensory perceptual evaluation, including sound;
• Best practice case studies in acoustic design, renovation, intervention in buildings.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Buildings is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
