Spectral modulation detection and vowel and consonant identifications in cochlear implant listeners.
Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2009Speech understanding by cochlear implant listeners may be limited by their ability to perceive complex spectral envelopes. Here, spectral envelope perception was characterized by spectral modulation transfer functions in which modulation detection ...

Temporal effects of geminate consonants and consonant clusters
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1987Current phonological theory analyzes geminate consonants as sequences of adjacent timing slots that completely share features while closing one syllable and opening the next. This analysis predicts that the temporal organization of utterances with geminate consonants is parallel to that of utterances including heterosyllabic consonant clusters.

Efficacy of linear frequency transposition on consonant identification in quiet and in noise.
Journal of american academy of audiology, 2009BACKGROUND Frequency transposition has gained renewed interest in recent years. This type of processing takes sounds in the unaidable high-frequency region and moves them to the lower frequency region.

The Influence of Consonant Environment upon the Secondary Acoustical Characteristics of Vowels
, 1953The consonant environments of vowels were varied by forming nonmeaningful stimulus syllables consisting of 72 combinations of six vowels and 12 consonants. The syllables were spoken by subjects, and the duration, fundamental frequency, and relative power

This chapter focuses on the evolution of the vowel–consonant notation. In particular, it discusses François Viète's contribution to algebra through his use of vowels to represent unknowns and consonants to represent known quantities. Viète, a French mathematician, expressed his famous computation for π in proposition II of his Isagoge.

Abutting Consonants, Including Double Consonants. Function of Consonants in the Linkage of Syllables
1928The tension-tenue-detente analysis of Rousselot led him to group the arresting (terminal) consonant of one syllable with the releasing (initial) consonant of the next syllable; these were made to constitute a single “group.” On occasion the distinction between the two constituents was noted:

American Speech, 1977
T HE ENGLISH voiced alveolopalatal fricative transcribed I//, /3/, and /zh/, and spelled variously in words like azure, jabot, luxury, negligee, treasure, and Zhukov, has been troublesome to various people in various ways over many years. British and American speakers disagree on the use of the consonant in a number of words: Americans prefer / / in ...

Consonant Structure and Prevocalization
, 2010This monograph proposes a new interpretation of the intrasegmental structure of consonants and provides the first systematic intra- and cross-linguistic study of consonant prevocalization. The proposed model represents consonants as inherently bigestural

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses how to pronounce consonants of a language. It has been observed that the clustering of consonants in the middle of a word may give rise to slightly different sound phenomena as compared with similar clusters where two words meet.

In recent work in feature geometry, the internal structure of the Place node has been the subject of attention. In the earliest work, the place features [anterior], [coronal], [high], [low], [back], and [round] proposed by Chomsky and Halle (1968) were arrayed under the Place node (Clements 1985).
