Dear Frederik,

thank you for sharing your PhD project. I was looking for usages of the acoustics.reflection module (in fact, I've opened an issue in python-acoustics) and came upon this repository. Sadly, you're the only user of the reflection module of the python-acoustics package as far as I can search through all Github pages.

nix-build -A thesis does not seem to work any longer, but I see that you know it already. I'd like to see the source code of auraliser.py to go through https://github.com/FRidh/phd_thesis/blob/master/nix/packages/common_simulation.py#L87-L91 but I cannot find the implementation of rcv.auralise() as well as many other components involved in this script.

Would you mind sharing the implementation?

I'd also like to have a look at the thesis itself but I don't understand where the main TeX compiled file is.

Thank you.

Best, Danylo

Hi

Yes, I wrote the reflection module for this purpose.

All packages used can be found in https://github.com/FRidh/phd_thesis/blob/v1.0.1/nix/packages/default.nix.

You are probably looking for the auraliser package https://github.com/FRidh/auraliser.

In https://github.com/FRidh/phd_thesis/blob/master/nix/thesis-source/default.nix all assets are put together in a folder. In https://github.com/FRidh/phd_thesis/blob/master/nix/thesis/default.nix the files are compiled into a pdf. The pdf can be found at http://publications.lib.chalmers.se/records/fulltext/251306/251306.pdf.

Wow, you've made lots of effort putting those things in auraliser. It's sad to see that such projects are discontinued.

Thanks for the pdf link, I've not managed to compile the scripts with the nix-build command.

Looking closely at auraliser example notebooks and the code structure, I understand that you've created this package mainly for yourself. I think, if you were affiliated with a university where such acoustics studies are performed (therefore, where grant could be issued), you could push the package to the users by working on the documentation, refactoring, etc.

Thanks. It's indeed a pity these kind of projects end when the funding is over. The current implementation is quite experimental though; my approach to performing these type of simulations changed as well (from a fixed length auralisation to a variable length soft real-time one) so the current tree is a mix of methods that could very well be improved.
