Abstract

In the mid 1970s, the Acoustics and Vibration Laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology was an exciting place for any student interested in acoustics and noise control. As one of the directors of the lab, Professor Lyon had a profound influence on the activities, students, and researchers working and studying there. Among the other things that Dick is known for such as Statistical Energy Analysis, Machinery Noise Diagnosis, and Product Sound Quality, he was also overseeing research on urban sound propagation and applications of acoustical scale modeling. This presentation will discuss some of this research, the culture of the A&V Lab, and personnel interactions with Professor Lyon from one of his student's and researcher's point of view.
