The phrase "attenuate sound" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to audio engineering, acoustics, or sound design when discussing the reduction or weakening of sound intensity.
Example: "The new soundproofing materials are designed to effectively attenuate sound, making the environment much quieter."
Alternatives: "dampen sound" or "reduce sound".
Materials matter, too: Exhaust manifolds made of thick cast iron attenuate sound differently than those fabricated from thin steel tubing.
The present work utilizes an analytical model, previously developed by the authors, as a design tool in the development of feedback control systems to attenuate sound transmission.
Furthermore, to attenuate sound power radiated from both the top panel and the open, two strategies are studied: minimizing the total radiated power and the cancellation of volume velocity.
The results indicate that these attachments can attenuate sound effectively and can be regarded to reduce energy and natural resource use by attaching them to deteriorated windows or in apartments needed to be reinforced.
An analytical active passive model is developed in order to attenuate sound radiating from the base shell structure, which consists of a rigid-body machine, an intermediate rigid mass, and a supporting cylindrical shell, all connected by a combination of passive and active isolators.
The ICU unit had been refurnished recently to attenuate sound levels in ceilings and floors, with large specialist glass panels in order to improve supervision of patients.
The signals are filtered and weighted so as to form a beam of enhanced sensitivity in the direction of the desired source and to attenuate sounds from other directions.
On the assumption that communication partners look at each other, directional microphones may be used to attenuate sounds not coming from the front.
Earplugs delay and attenuate sounds in a frequency-dependent manner [ 15 17], altering the spatial cue values corresponding to each direction in space while preserving the monaural spatial cues available to the nonoccluded ear.
Thus it plays a role in attenuating sound waves in fluids and may be estimated from the magnitude of the attenuation.
As a clue, bowel gas and faecaloid material typically appear more reflective, with acoustic noise and ring-down artefact, than a dermoid plug, which attenuates sound more gradually over a greater depth [26].
