Abstract
The research team in acoustics at the École Centrale de Lyon was founded 50 years ago by Prof. Geneviève Comte-Bellot. In this paper we describe the growth of this team, now known as the Acoustic center of the École Centrale de Lyon (or Centre Acoustique in French), from the early 1970s to the present day. We highlight the evolution of the research interests and experimental facilities, and provide a selection of “historical” references at the end of the paper. The main current research topics are listed and illustrated, and are complemented by a partial list of recent references.
Key words: Aeroacoustics / Vibroacoustics / Sound propagation / Active control / Nonlinear acoustics
