Weak voicing in fricative production
Journal of Phonetics, 2012Understanding of the production mechanisms of voiced fricatives lags significantly behind that of other phonemic categories of speech. This paper presents a new voicing classification criterion to distinguish the voicing in fricatives from that of their contextual vowels in VCV tokens: weak vs strong voicing. The criterion is based on the oral airflow,

The current study explores the role of the amplitude of the fricative noise in the perception of place of articulation in voiceless fricative consonants. The amplitude of the fricative noise in naturally produced fricative-vowel utterances was varied relative to the vowel and potential changes in perceptual responses were investigated. The amplitude of

Four studies investigated the perceptual effects of spectral variations in fricatives produced in different vowel contexts. The alveolar and palatal fricatives, [s, z, ℱ, z], were produced by two talkers in the context of the vowels [a, i, u], generating 12 fricative–vowel combinations.

Distinctiveness of "Defective" Fricative Sounds
Language and Speech, 1968A study was done in which a group of phonetically-trained listeners was asked to identify a fairly extensive range of fricatives from tape recordings. The data were analysed by means of confusion matrices for the sounds and by means of sub-matrices for distinctive features of the sounds.

Second formants in fricatives: Acoustic consequences of fricative-vowel coarticulation
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1981Spectral analyses of the sibilant fricatives, [s, z, ℱ, z], as spoken in isolation and in initial position before the vowels [a, i, u], were performed for a corpus of 80 utterances. The mean LPC spectra for five utterances of each fricative produced in each vowel context revealed reliable anticipatory vowel coarticulation effects present at least 30–60

Fricatives are very common, occurring in over 90% of the world’s documented languages and at all places of articulation codified in the International Phonetic Alphabet charts. Fricatives constitute a class of consonant sounds characterized by a turbulent airflow produced by a severe but not complete constriction of the vocal tract.
