Snoring is a prevalent disorder affecting 20-40% of the general population. The mechanism of snoring is vibration of anatomical structures in the pharyngeal airway. Flutter of the soft palate accounts for the harsh aspect of the snoring sound. Natural or drug-induced sleep is required for its appearance.

From the earliest stages of Greek thought, sound was thought to originate as the result of an impact between two objects. At first it was believed that the swiftness and force of the impact affected both volume and pitch; then it became clear that these were two different parameters.

Acoustic Dose and Acoustic Dose-Rate
Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology, 2009Acoustic dose is defined as the energy deposited by absorption of an acoustic wave per unit mass of the medium supporting the wave. Expressions for acoustic dose and acoustic dose-rate are given for plane-wave conditions, including temporal and frequency dependencies of energy deposition.

Acoustic transducer for acoustic microscopy
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1991A shear acoustic transducer-lens system in which a shear polarized piezoelectric material excites shear polarized waves at one end of a buffer rod having a lens at the other end which excites longitudinal waves in a coupling medium by mode conversion at selected locations on the lens.

ore than three-quarters of the teachers in a recent poll gave the acoustics in their classrooms a failing grade. The problem is most commonly a "signal to noise" ratio issue, which results in poor speech intelligibility.

Imaging Acoustics and Acoustic Imaging
2002This paper provides a brief overview of some of the techniques for imaging acoustic waves inside and on the surface of solids. Optical methods show the influence of material anisotropy on acoustical wave propagation in transparent solids. Multiple-pulse holography images waves on the surface of materials without the necessity of scanning.
