Abstract
A crack on a building wall and sound generated inside the building using an artificial sound source were simulated using Matlab. Various noise types affecting the pure sound signal, such as background noise in the room, were simulated. The forward problem of sound propagation from the crack surface to a virtual microphone array was simulated using the free-space green’s function. Nearfield acoustic holography (NAH) was applied to perform the inverse problem to calculate the sound pressure at the crack surface and determine the crack location on the building wall. Effects of various errors and noise on the sound pressure reconstruction using NAH were studied. The reconstructed sound pressure levels on the wall surface were compared with the originally simulated sound pressure data at the crack surface. Various crack sizes and shapes were simulated to determine the correlation between the size of the crack and the reconstructed pressure field.
