Subjective evaluation of an emerging theory of low-frequency sound source localization in closed acoustic spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
An earlier reported theory of low-frequency sound-source localization within closed acoustic spaces proposed that virtual image acuity is strongly dependent on sufficient inter-arrival time between a direct sound and its first reflection.

Effect of Painting on the Sound Absorption of Acoustic Materials [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1940
A brief discussion is given of the properties of a material which cause it to absorb sound. Photographs are shown and the results of sound absorption measurements before and after painting are given for a number of different types of material. A brief discussion is given of the kind of paint which can be used and how it should be applied.

A Visible Light‐Responsive Hydrogel to Study the Effect of Dynamic Tissue Stiffness on Cellular Mechanosensing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A visible light‐responsive polyacrylamide‐azobenzene hydrogel enables safe, reversible stiffness control for studying cell mechanobiology without harmful UV exposure. This approach reveals stem cells respond rapidly to mechanical changes, showing altered shape and protein distribution within one hour.

Design of periodic foam structures for acoustic applications: Concept, parametric study and experimental validation

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2019
Reticulated foams are widely used in noise control applications. However, difficulties in controlling the foaming process makes it difficult to control the microstructure and consequently the absorption characteristics of stochastic foams.

A time-harmonic/time-domain hybrid approach based on displacement-based formulations to compute the absorbing coefficient in alpha cabins

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics in Industry
In the automotive industry, the absorption coefficient of a porous material layer is usually measured in an alpha cabin, a reverberant chamber of reduced dimensions where the operational frequency range is limited and the absorbent sample size is ...

Tunable Perforated Panel Sound Absorbers for Variable Acoustics Room Design

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Variable acoustics systems are promising engineering developments for multi-purpose rooms and workspaces in many buildings. However, due to space requirements associated with most of the tuning devices used for that purpose, these solutions are hardly ...

Predicting theater chair absorption from reverberation chamber measurements - comment [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The relationship between the measured acoustic absorption coefficient of an array of theater chairs and the ratio of the perimeter length to plan area of the array is considered.

Photoactivation of NV Centers in Diamond via Continuous Wave Laser Illumination of Shallow As‐Implanted Nitrogen

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates an alternative method of creating charge‐stable negatively charged nitrogen vacancy (NV−) centers close to the diamond surface without high‐temperature annealing. By illuminating nitrogen‐implanted regions with a continuous‐wave 405 nm laser, NV− centers are induced, exhibiting electron spin coherence properties suitable for ...

Behaviour of acoustic waves in a duct with Helmholtz resonator in presence of a temperature gradient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Understanding the behaviour of one-dimensional acoustical wave propagation in ducts is very important for controlling combustion instabilities in propulsion, household burners, gas turbine combustors, and designing engineering mufflers.

Transducer Materials Mediated Deep Brain Stimulation in Neurological Disorders

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses advanced transducer materials for improving deep brain stimulation (DBS) in neurological disorders. These materials respond to light, ultrasound, or magnetic fields, enabling precise, less invasive neuromodulation. Their stimulus‐responsive properties enhance neural control and adaptive therapy, paving the way for next‐generation ...
