Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher works on acoustics and noise control engineering, focusing on how sound travels through and is absorbed by materials, and on methods for measuring and predicting acoustic behavior. Recent work includes designing new sound-absorbing materials (such as 3D-printed and aerogel-based absorbers), improving acoustic measurement techniques, and applying machine learning to diagnose noise and vibration problems in vehicles and appliances. This research is relevant to students interested in materials for noise reduction, acoustic measurement instrumentation, and engineering applications of sound and vibration analysis.
