Title: Comparison of the acoustics of mosques and catholic churches
Issue Date: 2009
Abstract: Catholic churches and mosques are worship places but with different occupation modes and acoustic requirements, decoration and architectural styles. This work reports on their acoustic performance to describe main similarities and differences. It is analysed the variability between objective acoustical parameters (Reverberation Time, Clarity C50 or C80 and STI or RASTI) and architectural parameters (volume, area, length, height and width). Regression models were cre-ated to find the best relationships among the parameters. A comparison between the acoustics of churches and mosques was established using data analysis to allow for a discussion relating to the comprehension of those parameters variability.
