Nanomaterial-Assisted Acoustic Neural Stimulation
, 2020 Wireless and non-invasive stimulation of neural system, especially at the central level, is considered a critical issue not only for the treatment of a variety of pathological conditions, such as epilepsy, chronic pain, and obsessive-compulsive disorders, but also for reducing the debilitating motor symptoms of movement disorders such as Parkinson’s ...

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract The establishment of guidelines and curriculum standards for medical physics residency training is a critical component of setting expectations and competencies for the profession. Since the last publication of these standards, residency training has become integrated into the eligibility criteria for most medical physics certification bodies.

International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, 2015 Introduction Treatment for auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) is not yet well established, including the use of hearing aids (HAs). Not all patients diagnosed with ASND have access to HAs, and in some cases HAs are even contraindicated.

Double-containment coil with enhanced winding mounting for transcranial magnetic stimulation with reduced acoustic noise [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Objective: This work aims to reduce the acoustic noise level of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) coils. TMS requires high currents (several thousand amperes) to be pulsed through the coil, which generates a loud acoustic impulse whose peak sound pressure level (SPL) can exceed 130 dB(Z).

Stimulated acoustic emissions from coupled strings [PDF]
Journal of Engineering Mathematics, 2013 We consider traveling transverse waves on two identical uniform taut strings that are elastically coupled through springs that gradually decrease their stiffness over a region of finite length. The wave system can be decomposed into two modes: an in-phase mode ([Formula: see text]) that is transparent to the coupling springs, and an out-of-phase mode ([

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Mechanical metamaterials capable of compressive stiffness tunability, shape morphing, and post‐fabrication modularity. Herein, the 3D unit cell design is based on an assembly of bistable von Mises trusses that exhibit a switch in compressive stiffness and resting height from one stable state to the other.

Stimulated Brillouin scattering enhancement in silicon inverse opal waveguides [PDF]
, 2016 Silicon is an ideal material for on-chip applications, however its poor acoustic properties limit its performance for important optoacoustic applications, particularly for Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS). We theoretically show that silicon inverse opals exhibit a strongly improved acoustic performance that enhances the bulk SBS gain coefficient ...
