Contemporary architectural and urban planning aims at optimal development of the environment, including in terms of acoustics. As such, support with computer-aided design (CAD) tools is, nowadays, obligatory. The authors present investigation outcomes of three different CAD and computing methods extracted for the study. The scope covers different scales of considerations from architectural acoustics to the urban level, which relates to the standard architect’s commissions field. The described approaches are applicable for both academics and professionals in the broadly understood building industry There were analysed and synthesized experiences from the use of two-dimensional and three-dimensional simulations, computing based on standardized formulas, and an acoustic meter (here: the SVAN 979 for RT60, LAeq measurement). The article concludes with an assessment, which shows possible uses of methods and confirmations of their usability.

The transmission of sound and vibration through structures is of interest in many noise control problems, including architectural acoustics, sound transmission through aircraft, spacecraft and ships, and the transmission of noise through machinery and engine enclosures. Statistical energy analysis provides a simple and accurate method of approaching these problems. In this paper, theory is examined for the transmission of acoustic energy through single panels, independent double panels, and double panels connected with tie beams. In the single panel case, the theoretical model consists of three linearly coupled oscillators; room-panel-room. The independent double panel case consists of five oscillators; room-panel-cavity-panel-room. In the connected double panel case, the tie beams must be accounted for as the sixth oscillator. A coupling loss factor is determined for the ties by considering the transmission of longitudinal waves, bending waves, and lateral shear waves in the ties. Both resonant and nonresonant transmission are included in the theory. It is shown that for a single panel, the experimental sound transmission loss, panel radiation resistance, and vibration amplitude are all well predicted by the theory. The experimental sound transmission loss is also well predicted in the independent double panel and coupled double panel cases.

American Indian Soundchiefs, an independent record label founded by the Rev. Linn Pauahty (Kiowa) in the 1940s, developed a remarkable model of Indigenous sound media that combined home recording, dubbing, and small-scale mass production. Alongside other Native American media producers of the same era, Soundchiefs built on earlier engagements with ethnographic and commercial recording to produce Native citizens’ media a generation prior to the Red Power era of the 1960s and 1970s. This soundwork provided Native music to Native listeners first, while also seeking to preserve a “rich store of folk-lore” sometimes in danger of being lost under ongoing colonial pressures. Pauahty’s label found ways to market commercial recordings while operating within what music and legal scholar Trevor Reed (Hopi) calls “Indigenous sonic networks,” fields of obligation and responsibility.
