Capillary Flows of Nematic Liquid Crystal
In this paper we report the new experimental results on the rise of a liquid crystal in flat capillaries with inner photosensitive surfaces. The capillaries with different surface orientations were prepared by the use of the photo-alignment technique ...

A new species of Leptopelis (Anura, Arthroleptidae) from the south-eastern slope of the Ethiopian Highlands, with notes on the Leptopelis gramineus species complex and the revalidation of a previously synonymised species [PDF]
A new ground-dwelling species of treefrog in the genus Leptopelis is described from the Harenna Forest in south-eastern Ethiopia. The description is based on morphology and acoustics and is supported by molecular data.

Computing Room Acoustics Using 3D FDTD: A Cuda Approach. [PDF]
In seeking to model realistic room acoustics, direct numerical simulation can be employed. This paper presents 3D Finite Difference Time Domain schemes that incorporate losses at boundaries and due to the viscosity of air.

Premises for Effective Teaching and Learning : State of the Art, New Outcomes and Perspectives of Classroom Acoustics [PDF]
Many booklets and standards have already been published on classroom acoustics in several countries, based on studies that were completed up to ten years ago and which were mainly focused on the speech intelligibility of pupils under noisy conditions. In

Acoustics of the Vowel - Preliminaries [PDF]
It seems as if the fundamentals of how we produce vowels and how they are acoustically represented have been clarified: we phonate and articulate. Using our vocal chords, we produce a vocal sound or noise which is then shaped into a specific vowel sound ...
