Noise-Induced Perilymph Fistula [PDF]
Ear, Nose & Throat Journal, 2006 Perilymph fistulae are difficult to diagnose because they present with a wide variety of signs and symptoms, they are associated with many etiologies, and they often mimic other conditions. In this article, we describe a case of perilymph fistula that featured one of its more rare causes: acoustic trauma—specifically, damage from a loud blast from the

Noise-induced quantum transport [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2005 We analyze the problem of directed quantum transport induced by external exponentially correlated telegraphic noise. In addition to quantum nature of the heat bath, nonlinearity of the periodic system potential brings in quantum contribution. We observe that quantization, in general, enhances classical current at low temperature, while the differences ...

Journal of Statistical Physics, 1983 A new noise effect on chaos in one-dimensional mappings is reported. The transition from chaotic behavior to ordered behavior induced by external noise is observed in a certain class of one-dimensional mappings. This transition is clearly shown in terms of the Lyapunov number, entropy, power spectrum, and the nature of orbits.
