The Institute of Sound and Vibration Research (ISVR), is an acoustical research institute which is part of the University of Southampton, England. Founded in 1963, it has been awarded a 2006 Queen's Anniversary Prize for Higher and Further Education.
The Tizzard Building of the University of Southampton. Home of the ISVR.
The ISVR is divided into four distinct groups of research:
- The Dynamics Group, (specialized in the modelling, measurement and control of structural vibrations)
- The Fluid Dynamics and Acoustics Group (including the Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre in Gas Turbine Noise) specialized in three fields which are aero-acoustics of aircraft engines, ultrasonics and underwater acoustics, noise source imaging and virtual acoustics.
- The Human Sciences Group (including the Hearing and Balance Centre and the Human Factors Research Unit) specialises in the human response to sound and vibration
- The Signal Processing and Control Group, which specialises in acoustics, dynamics, audiology and human sciences and as a basis for control of sound and vibration.
