ITS is active in acoustics Research and Development (R&D), with many contents produced by ITS human ressource.
Papers in relation to the acoustic properties of multilayered structures (planes or orthotropic partitions), made of plates and of porous media, play an important role here, with respect to their acoustic absorption as useful for reducing the reverberation of industrial or tertiary premises (acoustic correction) or for the reduction of noise by means of dissipative mufflers (e.g. for ventilation and air-conditioning systems, for the suction and discharge of fans, engines and turbo-machineries), or with respect to their acoustic absorption and their ability to limit sound transmission, which is sought for acoustic insulation panels (e.g. for machine enclosures, noise barriers and walls in industry, metal cladding in the construction or for claustras intended for offices or canteens).
Reports concerning research and development (R&D) works related to the acoustics and aerodynamics of fluid networks (under pressure when not conventional air systems) are numerous, both in terms of the performance of subsets such singularities such as ducts of different geometries, elbows, chimneys, nozzles, silencers of all kinds (which must be modeled for a correct consideration of their sound impact) as for the noise emitted by valves or gaseous jets including safety valves, and also for associated discharge parameters.
In addition, various documents deal with the propagation of sound, either outdoors (in relation to atmospheric absorption or to the presence of obstacles), or in premises (in relation to the phenomenon of reverberation) for problems related to noise decay (spatial or temporal).
ITS's research and development (R&D) works in acoustics (based on measurements and on simulations by the means of computation software with in-house programming), all related to the development of soundproofing products, devices and systems for building and industry, are the scientific background of ITS services offerings in the field of insulation and are illustrated by the contents produced and updated, over time, by the human resource of ITS.
