Clapping Circle Explained

This is a long-awaited presentation by the ASA Purdue Chapter who will also share their results at the ASA Annual Conference in Chicago next month. For our acoustical engineering alumni, you might recall Professor Bolton's theory on the phenomena of the sound that returns to the clapper while standing in the center of a clapping circle (the circular architectural features made of paving stones). There are at least two other theories out there and the students wanted a firm answer. Led by Multidisciplinary Engineering senior Ely Wing who is studying Acoustical Engineering, the team of students chose the clapping circle as their semester project for ASA in hopes to attract new members and to get their answer. Learn about their process and which theory was correct!
