TLDR
In this paper, a series of measurements of the sound transmission loss of double layer plasterboard panels were carried out with the panels separated by 50, 100, and 150 mm, and measurements were also made with no sound absorbing infill for comparison purposes.

Perception of Lexical Neutral Tone Among Adults and Infants.

TL;DR: This paper investigated whether neutral tone can be perceived as lexically unstressed by stress-language listeners and how Mandarin and Dutch infants perceive T0, finding that Mandarin infants' failure implies that the representation of T0 is not complete during their 1st year of life; the acquisition of tonal categories may therefore take longer than they expected.

Some observations on employing a panel's cill and reveal to enhance noise reduction

TL;DR: The cill and reveal of a panel or window are known to influence the Normalized Noise Reduction (NOR) process as mentioned in this paper, and additional observations upon their effect which may be employed to increase the sound insulation of rooms within the built environment.

The Influence of the Wall Cavity on the Transmission Loss of Wall Systems - Experimental Trends

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of the wall cavity on the sound transmission loss of double leaf wall systems has been investigated based on experimental trends and a wide variety of conclusions were obtained by different researchers concerning the role of the cavity and the properties of any associated sound absorption material.

Optimization of the Mass Distribution and the Air Spaces in Multiple‐Element Soundproofing Structures

TL;DR: In this article, a method for predicting the transmission loss of soundproofing multiple-element configurations containing any number of elements was proposed, and the optimum distribution of mass between the impervious elements (Fuselage skin panel, blanket septa, trim panel) was determined for a general theoretical configuration and for a typical aircraft structure.

The influence of absorbent linings on the transmission loss of double-leaf partitions

TL;DR: In this paper, the insertion of a porous blanket into the cavity of a double-leaf partition can produce a pronounced increase in transmission loss, particularly when the leaves have a low critical frequency and a broad coincidence plateau.

The use of absorbent material in double-leaf wall constructions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the effect of absorbent material in the cavity of a double panel on the transmission loss of the panel and found that absorbent to a previously undamped cavity has the greatest effect on transmission loss.
