Active noise control

  • LEAM works in the application of active noise control systems in the industrial field, this technique aims to cancel unwanted noise through destructive interference by using an additional acoustic field generated by an electronic control system.
  • LEAM members are working on the active window concept, which aims to maintain the sound insulation of walls despite the presence of openings. 
  • LEAM are also working on the optimization and implementation of local noise control techniques. This technique allows for reductions in specific areas, without affecting the rest of the acoustic field. LEAM implement this technique both experimentally and using commercial softwares or our own mathematical codes.  For example, this technique is being developed for application in modes of transport or acoustic barriers.
