Menino A. S. M. P. Tavares; S. Rajagopalan; António P. O. Carvalho; Satish J. Sharma

Acoustic Silence, Acoustic Intelligibility and Acoustic Sacred Factor are the acoustically constituted determinants of tranquillity in a Catholic church. The results presented here are part of a study that investigates the behaviour of derived acoustic parameters in worship spaces. Acoustically, Silence Factor (SiF) is found to decay quadratically with LAeq (R2=0.95, p<0.01); Intelligibility Factor (InF) decays...

The human whistle is a representation of the human vocal singing. Singing (solo and congregational) is an essential component of sacred music for collective worship in a Catholic church. The acoustic characterization of sacred music is defined in this paper through a derived Acoustic Comfort Impression Index (ACII) and several Acoustic Worship Indices (AWI), namely, Subjective Sacred Factor (SSaF), Subjective I...


Prediction of acoustic comfort and acoustic silence in Goan Catholic churches

Menino A. S. M. P. Tavares; S. Rajagopalan; Satish J. Sharma; António P.O. Carvalho

Acoustic Comfort and Acoustic Silence are determinants of tranquility in a worship space. The results presented here are part of a study that investigates the behaviour of acoustically constituted worship parameters in six Catholic churches (Goa, India). Acoustic comfort is quantified through an Acoustic Comfort Impression Index which measures the net comfort induced through the optimization of the desired subj...

Menino Allan S. M. Peter Tavares; S. Rajagopalan; Satish Jagannath Sharma; António Pedro Oliveira de Carvalho

The acoustic worship ambience in the church is defined through the derived Acoustic Worship Indices (AWI), namely Sacred Factor (SaF), Intelligibility Factor (InF) and Silence Factor (SiF). The Speech Intelligibility in the church was evaluated through RASTI tests for different sound source locations (altar [SA], pulpit [SB] and high altar [SC]) and for different postures (sitting [SIT] and standing [STAND]) an...

The Acoustic Characterization of Worship Ambience, a method used in Old Goa's Capela do Monte (a significant Catholic church of Goa, a former Portuguese colony in India), introduces a new concept of describing the worship mood through evaluation of architectural acoustics results. Three acoustically constituted worship parameters named Sacred Factor (SaF), Intelligibility Factor (InF) and Silence Factor (SiF) a...
