Measurement of noise events in road traffic streams: initial results from a simulation study [PDF]
, 2016 A key question for road traffic noise management is whether prediction of human response to noise, including sleep quality, could be improved over the use of conventional energy equivalent, or percentile, measures, by accounting for noise events in road ...

Reciprocity in reflection and transmission: what is a "phonon diode"?
, 2012 The newly popular topic of "phonon diodes" is discussed in the context of a broader issue of reciprocity in reflection/transmission (R-T) of waves. We first review a theorem well known in electromagnetism and optics but underappreciated in acoustics and ...

Advanced 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 ...
