      abstract     = {This thesis will present methods for sound synthesis for
                      real-time application. In an initial study, the
                      applicability and usability of synthesized vibration sounds
                      will be examined for a virtual drilling task. The study
                      shows that for the chosen scenario, realistic drilling sound
                      can support interaction in a similar way to haptic
                      vibrations, and can be utilized to compensate for a lack of
                      haptic feedback. Modal Synthesis is a promising approach for
                      an automatic synthesis of physically-based contact sounds
                      from the geometry and material properties of scene objects.
                      However, some limitations still restrict the applicability
                      of modal synthesis, which will be addressed in this thesis.
                      Synthesizing sounds in real-time can be a challenging
                      problem. For this, Modal Synthesis is a promising approach
                      that allows generating the contact of objects based on their
                      physical properties. Modal Synthesis requires a Modal
                      Analysis must be performed. This is a computationally
                      expensive task and usually performed in a pre-processing
                      step. In this thesis, approaches for the computation of a
                      Modal Analysis at run-time will be proposed, which enable
                      the use of Modal Synthesis for objects that cannot be
                      analyzed upfront, $e.g.\$ because they are created
                      interactively or are modified by the user. For this, the
                      run-time requirements will be evaluated, and appropriate
                      Levels-of-Detail approximations will be presented. When a
                      Modal Analysis has been computed, the resulting modal data
                      can be used to compute the vibration sound produced by an
                      object. These vibrations are excited by forces acting on the
                      object. At run-time, the Modal Synthesis has to evaluate the
                      modal vibrations and apply the force excitation. While these
                      computations can be performed on a CPU, this strongly limits
                      the number and complexity of sounding objects and the forces
                      acting on them. This thesis will present specialized
                      algorithms to compute the Modal Synthesis with active forces
                      on a graphics card, allowing for a high number of sounding
                      objects.},
