The primary challenge in acoustic modeling is computation of reverberation paths from a sound’s source position to a listener’s receiving position. As sound may travel from source to receiver via a multitude of reflection, transmission, and diffraction paths, accurate simulation is extremely compute intensive. 2, record 1, English, - acoustic%20modeling

Computer-aided acoustic modeling tools are important for design and simulation of three dimensional environments. For instance, an architect might use such a tool to evaluate the acoustic properties of a proposed auditorium design. Or, a factory designer might be able to predict the sound levels of any machine at any position on a factory floor. Acoustic modeling can also be used to provide sound cues to aid understanding, navigation, and communication in interactive rates. For example, the voices of users sharing a virtual environment may be spatialized according to each user's avatar location. 2, record 1, English, - acoustic%20modeling

Such a campaign (...) would involve all factory designers and operators, engineers and water treatment undertakings, requires their close co-operation right from the very first stages of the planning and design of manufacturing processes; moreover, the possibilities of recirculation must be constantly weighed against the need for purification. 1, record 2, English, - factory%20designer

Cette lutte qui concerne ensemble les promoteurs d'usines, les exploitants, les engineerings et les traiteurs d'eau, implique leur collaboration dès l'origine même des projets et dans la conception des procédés de fabrication, et elle exige un souci constant de confronter les possibilités de recyclage aux nécessités d'épuration. 1, record 2, French, - promoteur%20d%27usines
