In this paper, a theoretical model to evaluate impact sound transmission through a homogeneous wall is proposed. The model which is based on the Statistical Energy Analysis framework exhibits a system with room-wall-room. For the purpose to explore the mechanism of impact sound transmission through a wall, the impact sound reduction index between two rooms are predicted. Meanwhile, the variation of impact sound reduction index with the walls properties are also taken into account. The results reveal that the density, elastic modulus and thickness of a homogeneous wall have diverse effects on its impact sound insulation and can be chosen adequately to achieve ideal insulation values.It provides an approach to optimize impact sound insulating properties of the walls.

The slits on the lightweight partitions have a significant effect on sound insulation which is investigated in this paper. According to Gomperts model for rectangular aperture, the sound reduction index of a wall with slits can be predicted. Two lightweight partitions were selected to analyze their sound reduction index variation with factors such as width, length and location of slits. Results show that these factors affect the sound insulation evidently, especially at high frequencies.

This paper describes the procedure followed to evaluate the vibration reduction index for T-junctions with inserted flexible elements and proposes new equations to complement the standard EN 12354-1:2000. The experiment described in this work is based on a 1:3 scale model of a T-junction with a flexible interlayer. It was used to obtain a significant reduction in the cost of the configurations under study. We chose to carry out vibration measurements by near-field acoustic holography (NAH) in order to avoid the risk of accelerometer interference. Flanking transmission was determined for different elastic layers with the objective of quantifying the effect of the flexible interlayer and to compare the results obtained with predictive formulas. The results enabled us to propose new equations to complement EN 12354-1:2000 for the reliable prediction of the apparent sound reduction index. The uncertainty associated with the different average velocity levels is determined according to the Guide for the Expression of Uncertainty of Measurement (GUM).

The structural complexity of a door causes difficulties in the description of its behavior from an acoustical point of view. In many cases, even a small change can cause a big difference in its sound-isolating properties. To determine the acoustical quality of a door, it is important to perform laboratory measurements of the door structure and door frame, the gaps including. A mathematical analysis based on experimental measurements of the sound reduction index of several door constructions was used to determine the acoustical door categories. The equations for calculating the sound reduction index, which were introduced in this paper, should help in the design of a suitable door from an acoustical point of view.
