On a Robust Descriptor of the Flue Organ Pipe Transient
The initial transient of an organ pipe is known to be of great influence to the perceived sound quality. At the same time, the unsteady process of the tone onset is essentially nonlinear and lacks exact repeatability, so the search for a robust ...

Transmission Perspective on the Mechanism of Coarse and Fine Crackle Sounds
The possibility of a normal distribution indicates that few particles are in the same phase during a breath and their reflections can be observed on the chest wall, then a few explosive waves with relatively large power occurr occasionally.
