Sara R. Martin

Sara R. Martin is an Associate Professor in the Department of Electronic Systems at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), within the Faculty of Information Technology, Mathematics and Electrical Engineering. Her research focuses on acoustics, signal processing, and aerospace engineering, with notable contributions to sound scattering, environmental noise measurement, and paleoacoustics. She teaches courses such as TTT4292 (Acoustics of Rooms and Musical Instruments) and TTT4295 (Acoustic Signal Processing). Her work bridges theoretical acoustics with practical applications, including studies in archaeological sound environments and aircraft noise tracking.

Research interests include computational acoustics, edge diffraction modeling, and the development of hybrid methods for sound scattering. Recent studies explore acoustical measurement techniques for educational purposes and the acoustics of Chauvet Cave. She has collaborated on projects like MESH2FAUST, a physical model generator for musical instruments using the Faust language.

Her publications span journals such as the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, IEEE Transactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems, and Acta Acustica. She actively participates in conferences, including the 173rd Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America and the European Acoustics Association events.
