The acoustics of dwellings and offices greatly affects the quality of our life, since we are all consciously or subconsciously aware of the sounds to which we are daily subjected. Architectural acoustics, which encompasses room and building acoustics, is the scientific field that deals with these topics and can be defined as the study of generation, propagation, and effects of sound in enclosures. Modeling techniques, as well as related acoustic theories for accurately calculating the sound field, have been the center of many major new developments. In addition, the image conveyed by a purely physical description of sound would be incomplete without regarding human perception; hence, the interrelation between objective stimuli and subjective sensations is a field of important investigations. A holistic approach in terms of research and practice is the optimum way for solving the perplexing problems which arise in the design or refurbishment of spaces, since current trends in contemporary architecture, such as transparency, openness, and preference for bare sound-reflecting surfaces are continuing pushing the very limits of functional acoustics. All the advances in architectural acoustics gathered in this Special Issue, we hope that inspire researchers and acousticians to explore new directions in this age of scientific convergence. 606 $aResearch & information: general$2bicssc 606 $aMathematics & science$2bicssc 610 $aacoustic measurements 610 $aimpulse response measurements 610 $aomnidirectional source 610 $adodecahedron 610 $aacoustic parameters 610 $asound source 610 $areverberation time 610 $aISO 3382 610 $aauralization 610 $asound absorption 610 $aperforated panels 610 $amicro-perforated panels 610 $aresonant absorbers 610 $afrequency domain 610 $aPUFEM 610 $aroom acoustics 610 $awave-based method 610 $adiscretization error 610 $aexplicit method 610 $afinite element method 610 $ahigh order scheme 610 $aroom acoustic simulations 610 $atime domain 610 $ashoebox concert hall 610 $adiffusive surfaces 610 $adiffusers location 610 $aacoustical parameters 610 $avariable acoustics 610 $asubjective investigation 610 $aacoustics 610 $aopera house 610 $aintangible cultural heritage 610 $aopen-air ancient theatres 610 $aISO 3382-1 610 $afirecrackers 610 $abuilding acoustics 610 $asound absorption coefficient 610 $aprediction models 610 $asupervised learning method 610 $aworship space acoustics 610 $aacoustics simulation 610 $aacoustic heritage 610 $aarchaeo-acoustics 610 $aacoustic subspaces 610 $aFDTD simulation 610 $aspeech intelligibility 610 $aopen-plan offices 610 $aspatial decay 610 $aISO 3382-3 610 $aroom absorption 610 $aoffice noise 610 $aspeech 610 $acalculation models 610 $aabsorption 610 $ascattering 610 $aairflow resistivity 610 $along space 610 $acoherent image source method 610 $asound-absorbing boundary 610 $asound field modeling 610 $ascale-model experiment 610 $areflection power 610 $aroom response 610 $adirectional decay rates 610 $aroom modes 610 $aeigenbeam processing 610 $aspatial correlation 610 $aconcert hall acoustics 610 $alateral reflections 610 $ashoebox typology 610 $aspatial impression 610 $aperception thresholds 610 $askeletal reflections 610 $areflection sequence 610 $aseat dip effect 610 $aseat height 610 $aseat spacing 610 $amechanism 615 7$aResearch & information: general 615 7$aMathematics & science 700 $aPapadakis$b Nikolaos M$4edt$01328208 702 $aGarai$b Massimo$4edt 702 $aGeorgios$b Stavroulakis$4edt 702 $aPapadakis$b Nikolaos M$4oth 702 $aGarai$b Massimo$4oth 702 $aGeorgios$b Stavroulakis$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910580206703321 996 $aAdvances in Architectural Acoustics$93038428 997 $aUNINA
