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.

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:

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

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 ...

Despite their fundamental importance to music theory, consonance and dissonance are surprisingly slippery concepts. They cannot unequivocally be identified as acoustical, aesthetic, physiological, psychological, or cultural-historical. This chapter examines a wide range of approaches to consonance/dissonance, focusing on four debates: the age-old ...

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.

Perceptual and Motor Skills, 1986
A reconceptualization of some of the ideas associated with the aesthetic experience is proposed. The problems that arise in defining the terms ‘beautiful’ and ‘perfect’ may be overcome by substituting the term ‘fittingness.’ The core of the aesthetic experience is the experience of some degree of fit between the specimen (the aesthetic object or event)

The Acquisition of Arabic Consonants
Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 1998This normative study of the acquisition of consonants of Arabic as spoken in Jordan answered 4 questions: (1) What percentage of children at each of 9 age levels produced each consonant correctly? (2) What are the ages ofcustomary production, mastery, andacquisitionfor each phoneme?

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

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).
