Method of designing a sound waveguide surface

摘要

A method for designing a sound waveguide surface is described. The method includes the steps of forming a parametric model of the sound waveguide surface where the parametric model has at least one input parameter and then simulating a sound field that is formed by the sound waveguide surface. A frequency dependent spatial distribution measure is then determined for the sound field associated with the sound waveguide surface and the at least one input parameter is varied to change the sound waveguide surface to adjust the value of the frequency dependent spatial distribution measure.
