Experimental and numerical study of Conoscopic Interferometry sensitivity for optimal acoustic pulse detection in ultrafast acoustics [PDF]

open access: yesPhotoacoustics, 2023
Conoscopic interferometry is a promising detection technique for ultrafast acoustics. By focusing a probe beam through a birefringent crystal before passing it through a polarizer, conoscopic interferences sculpt the spatial profile of the beam.

Performance Research and Optimization of Sound Insulation Hood of Air Compressor Unit

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The noise control of a compressor has always been a hot spot in the field of industrial application. In this paper, the air inlet structure of the sound insulation hood of an air compressor unit was studied and improved. Acoustic finite element numerical

Extraction and Analysis of Respiratory Motion Using a Comprehensive Wearable Health Monitoring System

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Respiratory activity is an important vital sign of life that can indicate health status. Diseases such as bronchitis, emphysema, pneumonia and coronavirus cause respiratory disorders that affect the respiratory systems.

Developing and evaluating a hybrid wind instrument [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A hybrid wind instrument generates self-sustained sounds via a real-time interaction between a computed excitation model (such as the physical model of human lips interacting with a mouthpiece) and a real acoustic resonator.

Methodology Of Experimental Investigations Of Valve Operation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Tightness, as well as the reliability of the valve plate, is a complex property of the effective operation of compressor cylinders of the first stage and, in general, gas-engine reciprocating compressors.

Modeling and Compensation of Nonlinear Distortion in Horn Loudspeakers [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Horn loaded compression drivers are widely used in the area where high sound pressure levels together with good directivity characteristics are needed. Major disadvantage of this kind of drivers is the considerable amount of nonlinear distortion.

Accounting for Acoustic Damping in a Helmholtz Solver [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Thermoacoustic Helmholtz solvers provide a cheap and efficient way of predicting combustion instabilities. However, because they rely on the inviscid Euler equations at zero Mach number, they cannot properly describe the regions where aerodynamics may ...

Experimental measurement of the nonlinearities of electrodynamic microphones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
International audienceThis paper presents an experimental way of characterizing the nonlinearities of electrodynamic microphones used as acoustical sources. This functioning occurs for reciprocal calibration techniques.

Miniature photonic-crystal hydrophone optimized for ocean acoustics

open access: yes, 2010
This work reports on an optical hydrophone that is insensitive to hydrostatic pressure, yet capable of measuring acoustic pressures as low as the background noise in the ocean in a frequency range of 1 Hz to 100 kHz.

Constant-pressure sound waves in non-Hermitian disordered media

open access: yes, 2018
When waves impinge on a disordered material they are back-scattered and form a highly complex interference pattern. Suppressing any such distortions in the free propagation of a wave is a challenging task with many applications in a number of different ...
