Shakespeare's Sound Government: Sound Defects, Polyglot Sounds, and Sounding Out

open access: yesOral Tradition, 2009
Shakespearean sound effects (or sound defects) depend not only on hearing with the eye (as in Sonnet 23) but also on seeing with the ear, including through the vivid reports of the nuntius or messenger who produces not "ocular proof" but what might be called a (potentially unsound) "evidence effect," turning the ear into a substitute oculus or eye ...

Discussion of the De Generatione Sonorum, a treatise on sound and phonetics by Robert Grosseteste [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Here I am proposing a translation and discussion of the De Generatione Sonorum, one of the short scientific treatises written by Robert Grosseteste. The subject is the sound and the phonetics.

Scattering of first and second sound waves by quantum vorticity in superfluid Helium

open access: yes, 1997
We study the scattering of first and second sound waves by quantum vorticity in superfluid Helium using two-fluid hydrodynamics. The vorticity of the superfluid component and the sound interact because of the nonlinear character of these equations ...

Observation of second sound in graphite at temperatures above 100 K [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2019
Graphite gets a second sound Between the two extremes of ballistic and diffusive lattice thermal transport is the potential for an exotic wave-like state known as second sound. Huberman et al. used fast, transient thermal grating measurements to show the

Acoustic Measures Capture Speech Dysfunction in Spinocerebellar Ataxia

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) are hereditary cerebellar degenerative disorders with a common feature of dysarthria, involving impaired phonatory and articulatory control of speech, thereby affecting social communication. In this study, we investigated whether acoustic measures could objectively measure speech dysfunction and identify

What Matters is Mutual Investment and Evidence-Based Dialogue: Designing Meaningful Contexts for Teacher Learning

open access: yesNorthwest Journal of Teacher Education, 2012
How might teachers be supported as professional learners, in activities and conversations that assist, rather than distract from, the complex work they do each day?

Cellists’ sound quality is shaped by their primary postural behavior

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
During the last 20 years, the role of musicians’ body movements has emerged as a central question in instrument practice: Why do musicians make so many postural movements, for instance, with their torsos and heads, while playing musical instruments?

Acoustic topological insulator and robust one-way sound transport [PDF]

open access: yesNature Physics, 2015
The acoustic analogue of a topological insulator is shown: a metamaterial exhibiting one-way sound transport along its edge. The system — a graphene-like array of stainless-steel rods — is a promising new platform for exploring topological phenomena ...

Adipokines and Associations With Incident Osteoporotic Fracture in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We assessed whether circulating adipokines are associated with incident fractures in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Three adipokines (adiponectin, leptin, and fibroblast growth factor [FGF]‐21) were measured using banked enrollment serum from participants in a longitudinal RA cohort.

Unified Dark Fluid with Constant Adiabatic Sound Speed: Including Entropic Perturbations

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper, we continue to study a unified dark fluid model with a constant adiabatic sound speed but with the entropic perturbations. When the entropic perturbations are included, an effective sound speed, which reduces to the adiabatic sound speed ...
