Spanish is better than English for discriminating Portuguese vowels: acoustic similarity versus vowel inventory

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2014
Second language (L2) learners often struggle to distinguish sound contrasts that are not present in their native language (L1). Models of non-native and L2 sound perception claim that perceptual similarity between L1 and L2 sound contrasts correctly ...

Vowel Production in Mandarin Accented English and American English: Kinematic and Acoustic Data from the Marquette University Mandarin Accented English Corpus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Few electromagnetic articulography (EMA) datasets are publicly available, and none have focused systematically on non-native accented speech. We introduce a kinematic-acoustic database of speech from 40 (gender and dialect balanced) participants ...

THE CALCULATION OF HUGONIOTS IN IONIC SOLIDS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The authors demonstrate the quantitative prediction of Hugoniots for an ionic crystal (NaCl) using the shell model with the best available potentials. The calculations show that these shock wave data can be predicted quite accurately by relatively simple

Measuring Torque and Temperature in a Rotating Shaft Using Commercial SAW Sensors

open access: yesSensors, 2017
Real-time monitoring of torque in a rotating shaft is not easy to implement with technologies such as optic fiber sensors or strain gages. Surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors are wireless and passive and can be used to monitor strain in moving parts ...
