Abstract:
Studies on the effect of occupational noise have been widely performed for occupations such as construction workers, workers of factories or even musicians and workers of nightclubs. However, studies on the acoustics of church bells are very scarce and usually reported in languages other than English. In Spain, although the tradition of bell ringers is progressively getting lost, some bell ringers that continue transmitting the tradition remain. Church bells create sound with a large sound pressure level that can be heard from a great distance. However, despite the characteristics of the sound of church bells, bell ringers do not present symptoms of occupational hearing loss unlike musicians and construction workers. To determine the effects of the sound of the church bells on bell ringers, in this paper, an acoustic study of the church bells and a physiological study of the hearing abilities of bell ringers. Results show sound pressure levels reaching 120 dB inside the bell tower. The resulting hearing loss in bell ringers is small considering the great intensity of the sound produced by the bells. This is likely due to the short amount of time that bell ringers are exposed to the sound even if it reaches high sound pressure levels.

Abstract:
Abstract Urban is one of the three bells in the belfry of St. Trinity Church in Krosno. It is the largest one, with diameter equal to 1,535 mm and it is commonly considered as one of the largest historical bells in Poland. The total mass of all the three bells is close to 4,200 kilograms, so the dynamic actions produced by swinging have a great effect on the supporting structure and on the tower. However, the exact weight of the biggest bell isn't known, and for safety reasons it should be estimated in order to verify the real dynamic forces affecting the structure. The paper describes the method of Urban bell’s survey using terrestrial laser scanning and a total station as a task to estimate its weight by determining its volume.

Abstract:
The possibility of reconstructing the bells in the architectural and town planning structure is considered on the example of the city of Moscow. The basis of the Russian cities are a fortress, fortifications, towns and settlements. With the adoption of Christianity, the dominant role in the planning-spatial system of Russian cities belongs to spiritual objects (temples, bell towers, monasteries). Each settlement has its own cathedral church, which is an architectural dominant. It also serves as a compositional and spiritual guide. Russian city becomes the keeper of spiritual values. The warning and the call of the townspeople are conducted from deep antiquity, an important role in this is played by the bells that came to life of the Russian people with the adoption of Christianity at the end of the ХХ century, most likely from Western Europe, and almost immediately became part of Russian culture. With the invention of flat bells for the first time in the world, it is possible to carry out studies of bell ringing in the laboratory. The Moscow bells of the first half of the ХVIII century, decreed by the Dicasteria (spiritual consistory) in 1727, was reconstructed using the method of imposing on the plan of Moscow created by architect Ivan Michurin at 1739 in accordance with the list of temples and monasteries participating in the bells after the Cathedral bells of the Great Assumption Cathedral. The Church of the Resurrection of Christ in Kadashi is located on the main compositional and sentinel axis of Moscow (the Ivan the Great Bell Tower is the Church of the Ascension in the village of Kolomenskoye). New churches are being built, there is a revival of the traditions of the bell ringing — a unique component of Russian culture, which must be integrated into the spiritual life of the city and the Russian tourist practice.

Abstract:
The paper considers principles of naming the bells and the main features, according to which the bell could get either name. Scientists believe that to a greater extent the structure of such onym units characterizes the specifics of how the bells were treated in Kievan Rus and the overall attitude of the Russians to them. The study was based on the analysis of the unique catalogue containing linguistic units and reflecting the history of bells, bell ringing and bell casting. The main sources of the study included compiled chronicles, archive materials, register of monastic and temple property, inscriptions on bells, and church charters. The study was conducted through comparative-historical, linguistic and cultural analysis, as well as field analysis within the cognitive stylistics. As a result, 51 bell names and their historical background were analyzed. The authors conclude that the study of linguistic units related to the history of bells and bell ringing in Russia alongside with their casting features will make it possible to bridge the historical knowledge gap and to draw some conclusions on the way the Russians perceive the linguistic worldview of this unique element of the Russian culture.

Abstract:
The aims of the article is to discuss the losses sustained by the Diocese of Kielce in relation to the sacral bells during the Second World War. This issue was not so far discussed in detail in historical literature. On the basis of available sources (materials stored in the Archive of the Diocese in Kielce) it should be noted, that during the last war the diocese of Kielce lost more than 160 church bells because of the German military requisition and at least a few as a result of the warfare. The highest intensity of the action of confiscation bells by the Nazis were recorded in 1941–1942, after that time it took place only very occasionally. Among the confiscated bells were 43 antique ones, cast before 1900. The most historical bells, as many as five, lost the Parish of Gnojno. The oldest bell, looted by the Germans from the Church dedicated to the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Książ Mały, was cast in 1500. The most of the bells made before 1900 was the work of unknown artists. Only a few of them bear the signature of the craftsman. Bells funded in the interwar period came mostly from the three Polish foundries, that is factories of Felczyński Brothers in Kalush (Kałusz) and Przemyśl, workshop of Karl Gustav Schwabe in Biała near Bielsko and the „Bells Foundry Francis Lott, Michael Dziarski and Company” („Odlewnia Dzwonów Franciszek Lott, Michał Dziarski i Spółka”), located in Pustelnik near Warsaw.

Abstract This article discusses the religious soundscape of the Maronites in the 16th and the 17th century as reflected in Western travel accounts that report the use of church bells at Qannūbīn Monastery in Lebanon, the residence of the Maronite patriarch. Bell ringing for religious purposes was actually forbidden in the Ottoman Empire. The Christian communities of the Levant employed a wooden instrument, the semantron, to call the faithful to service. Qannūbīn was an exception. Information provided by pilgrims and travelers sheds light on some of the reasons behind the use of bell ringing in this remote religious foundation. Moreover, I argue that the use of bells at Qannūbīn was related to the close contacts between the Maronite clergy and the Pope of Rome. The former wanted to be in communion with the Roman Church. The use of bell ringing at the patriarchal residence assisted to project a Catholic image by means of sound.

Abstract:
The given article studies two small bells found in the tomb 19/2020 in the narthex of the single-nave church in block II at Eski-Kermen plateau. These bells have slightly flattened body with a slit and a small ball inside; they are decorated with corrugated transverse stripes. One of the bells is completely preserved, the other is fragmented. The aim of the work was to determine the composition of the metal and the manufacturing technology of the bells. The X-ray fluorescence analysis of the elemental composition of the metal of the bells showed that the items themselves and the ball inside one bell were made of tin-lead bronze. All currently known reconstructions of the manufacturing technology of such products are described, with the most possible one as the making of wax model of bells comprising of two halves and, later, lost wax casting; clay form was also lost.

Abstract:
This article examines how Fascism’s economic autarky impacted on church construction in the late 1930s. The shortage of copper in Italy due to sanctions imposed by the League of Nations and the ensuing Italian policy of self-sufficiency led to the installation of loudspeakers instead of bells in newly erected churches. The amplified sound of recordings and of tubular bells could be heard from far greater distances than that of traditional bells. Although these technologies disregarded the Catholic Church’s directives on utilising modern technical equipment in liturgy, their use was tolerated because of the economic circumstances. Indeed, some clergy endorsed these sound systems as a means of modernising the Church and as an act of patriotism. The practice, however, risked conflating ecclesiastical and Fascist broadcasts since the use of loudspeakers for political propaganda was widespread. In one case, the Fascist anthemGiovinezzawas played regularly from a church belfry: after the war, furious citizens destroyed this audio system. The decision by dioceses as to whether to adopt technological alternatives to bells exposed the conflicting positions within the Church towards both modernity and the Regime.

Abstract:
There is a legend about a church on the island of Orust in the small village of Tegneby. The legend tells a story about a hidden church bell in the mysterious hole in the creek. “During a war long time ago, people were afraid that the King Gustav Vasa would take their church bell to use as material for cannons. So the people in Tegneby hid their beloved church bell in a hole in the creek below the church and there it remained for seven years”  (main legend) The aim of this paper was to find out if this legend still is alive in the area of Tegneby. Another aim was to understand what had caused the folk legend to appear and also if there were other places in the south west of Sweden that had corresponding legends.  There was a big difference in the knowledge of the legend between the informants that I intervjued according to age. The older informants knew about the story and also had heard more versions of the legend. The younger informants were not as enlightened about the legend of the sunken/hidden church bell. Were there similar legends in the south west of Sweden? Yes, there was as many as 397 of them, they were very much alike the main legend about Tegnebys sunken church bell. What could have caused this legend? The answer is this that there is no perfect right answer. What probably caused the legend to appear was confiscation of church bells that took place during the15-1600 hundreds in Sweden and in Denmark. People got afraid that their church bell was going to be taken from them.

Hibbert, William A. "The quantification of strike pitch and pitch shifts in church bells." Thesis, Open University, 2008. http://oro.open.ac.uk/44498/.

Full text
Abstract:
The primary objective of the work reported in this thesis was to quantify how the pitch or strike note of a bell is determined by the frequencies of its partials. Pitches of bells are generally virtual pitch or missing fundamental effects, generated in the ear rather than present as a frequency in the radiated sound. The exact pitch is shifted from that expected for the missing fundamental by changes in the frequency of various partials. This can cause bells whose partials are in theory tuned precisely, to sound out of tune by considerable fractions of a semitone. The pitch shifts were quantified at frequencies across the audible spectrum by a set of experiments carried out on 30 subjects. Subsidiary experiments established which partials create a bell’s pitch or pitches at different frequencies, and showed that partial amplitude does not significantly affect bell pitch. A simple model of pitch shift was devised from the test results which gave good agreement with the stretch tuning in a number of peals of bells. Stretch tuning has not previously been satisfactorily explained. The pitch shifts were also compared against Terhardt’s algorithm for virtual pitch, which did not predict the shifts seen in practice. To prepare for these experiments, a comprehensive investigation was done of the partial frequencies of over 2,000 bells with a wide range of dates, weights and founders. An unexpected and straightforward relationship was found between the frequencies of the upper partials which generate virtual pitches, which seems to apply to all bronze and steel bells of Western shape. The relative frequencies of these partials are in turn determined by the thickness of the bell’s wall near the rim. This relationship between the partials has not been previously reported, and explains previous failed attempts by bellfounders to tune these partials independently. The modified version of Chladni’s law proposed by Perrin and Rossing for these partial frequencies was found not to give as good a fit to their frequencies as the relationship discovered in this research. The work presented in this thesis is important for at least two reasons: • It provides new practical guidance for the design and tuning of bells • The shifts in virtual pitches observed as a result of upper partial changes support current research into pitch generation mechanisms in the human ear.

Abstract:
This article examines the soundscape, both commemorative and disruptive, experienced in the city of Lima during the War of Independence, focusing on the sounds produced by church bells and cannons. Even though, in Lima, patriots and royalists never fought a pitched battle, the war resoundingly marked the city’s aural environment. Disruptive noise emitted by church bells and cannons  during the war greatly exceeded in intensity and duration the commemorative sounds sponsored by the independent government, and even had the power to change it dramatically.
Este artículo presenta la sonoridad conmemorativa y disruptiva experimentada en la ciudad de Lima durante la guerra de la independencia, haciendo énfasis en los sonidos desplegados por campanas y cañones. A pesar de que, en Lima, ni patriotas ni realistas se llegaron a enfrentar en una batalla a campo abierto, laguerra marcó de modo contundente el ambiente sonoro en la ciudad. La sonoridaddisruptiva emitida por campanas y cañones en el transcurso de la guerra superó ampliamente en intensidad y duración a la sonoridad conmemorativa auspiciada por el gobierno independiente, e incluso tuvo el poder de modificarla dramáticamente.

Abstract:
This article discusses a significant element of the religious sound- scape of the Orthodox communities in the Balkans, the call to mass. The period between the Byzantine reconquest of Constantinople (1261) and the death of the Serbian King Milutin (1282–1321) witnessed the expansion of bell ringing in churches and monasteries while the semantron, the tradition- al instrument of the Byzantine Church, continued to be employed. Hence, the first decades of the Palaeologan age were crucial for the formation of a new religious soundscape that included the sounds of both church bells and semantra, that is, it was eclectic. A combination of written sources and instances of material culture attest the development of this heterogeneous soundscape. The former include references from Byzantine and Serbian sources while the latter comprises two bells cast in the thirteenth and the fourteenth century. These artefacts help us to visualise the type of church bells employed in the Balkans during the reign of King Milutin. The aim of the contribution is to provide a picture -as general as possible- of the reli- gious soundscape of the Early Palaeologan age and highlight the significant transformation that it underwent in these years.

Abstract:
Abstract Mechanical and fatigue properties of cold sprayed (CS) Cu20Sn bell metal were tested in order to assess the potential applicability of the technology to repair impact areas of church bells. The CS bell metal was compared to its traditional cast counterparts, a fine-grained Cu22Sn bell metal seen in small bells, and a coarse-grained Cu20Sn seen in large bells. Similar to other CS metals, it was shown that both the strength as well as the fatigue crack growth rates at low loading are similar to the cast materials. The fracture toughness of the CS material was comparable with the finegrained Cu22Sn bell metal, while both were significantly lower than the coarse-grained Cu20Sn bell metal. The impact damage rate of the CS material determined by a periodic impact test was significantly higher than the (finegrained) cast material. Both materials showed a stabilized, very slow damage rate after the relatively fast initial crater formation. The results presented in this paper identify CS as a feasible restoration technology for church bells, and the introduced methodology presents a characterization method for quantitative description of bell metal impact damage.

Abstract:
Abstract. Bell towers are masonry slender structures prone to damage caused by vibrations due to human activities, such as motor-vehicle traffic and operating machines in building sites, to bells’ ringing and, of course, vulnerable to strong vibrations induced by earthquakes. Several studies with Operational Modal Analysis applications to masonry historical slender towers demonstrate that their modal properties are typical and recurrent and depend mainly on the geometric features determining mass distribution and on the boundary conditions due to adjacent buildings and subjacent foundation soil. In the paper a sensitivity analysis of modal frequency obtained by FEM eigenvalue analysis to the soil modelling approach is carried out. The case study is the historical bell tower of San Giuseppe in Aci Castello church. The natural frequencies of the tower, identified through OMA procedure are considered for comparison.

Abstract:
More than 140 churches with medieval wall paintings have been preserved in Istria, which are an essential part of Istrian cultural identity, and classify Istria as the region with the greatest density of this type of cultural heritage. In the last 25 years considerable effort has been put into the preservation and conservation of the wall paintings, but also in the restoration of the churches from the structural point of view. The most significant adverse effects on the frescoes are capillary humidity and cracks that occur as a result of the ground settlement. In this paper we will focus on small single-nave churches with pointed barrel vaults, which are characteristic for the Gothic period. As a case study, the seismic capacity of the church of St. Anthony in Barban will be studied. The interior of the church was entirely painted in the early 15th century. The church has a simple architecture: a rectangular ground plan, roof covered with slate tiles and a bell gable present at the front façade. The walls are built of regular stone blocks in lime mortar. We present results of the numerical analysis of the pointed vault due to seismic actions. The admissible failure mechanisms related to formation of plastic hinges are examined.
