Graduate Skills Seminar #2
THIS FRIDAY in ETC 2.114 at 3 PM
Using Fourier synthesis to study the acoustic propagation of pulses in the time domain.
Presenter: Ben Goldsberry
In many acoustics courses, solutions are computed by taking a Fourier transform of the wave equation. The resulting Helmholtz equation is then solved for a particular frequency. However, rarely does one perform the inverse Fourier transform and study the acoustic propagation of pulses in the time domain. This talk will present the idea of Fourier synthesis to compute the propagation of pulses in the time domain. This method is advantageous because any solution to the Helmholtz equation, in addition to any input pulse into the system, can be used. The algorithm, tips, and tricks of performing Fourier synthesis will be covered.
Hope you can make it!
