A volume-based hydrodynamic approach to sound wave propagation in a monatomic gas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We investigate sound wave propagation in a monatomic gas using a volume-based hydrodynamic model. In Physica A vol 387(24) (2008) pp6079-6094, a microscopic volume-based kinetic approach was proposed by analyzing molecular spatial distributions; this led

Combining Three Peripheral Blood Biomarkers to Stratify Rheumatoid Arthritis–Associated Interstitial Lung Disease Risk

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective The purpose was to evaluate a biomarker score consisting of MUC5B rs35705950 promoter variant, plasma matrix metalloproteinase‐7 (MMP‐7), and serum anti–malondialdehyde‐acetaldehyde (anti‐MAA) antibody for rheumatoid arthritis (RA)–associated interstitial lung disease (ILD) risk stratification.

Interactions of inert confiners with explosives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The deformation of an inert confiner by a steady detonation wave in an adjacent explosive is investigated for cases where the confiner is suciently strong (or the explosive suciently weak) such that the overall change in the sound speed of the inert ...

Evaluating a Pragmatic Strength Alternative for Frailty Measurement and Assessing Its Predictive Capacity Against Established Frailty Instruments in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Frailty occurs prematurely in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and is associated with poor health outcomes. We compared the performance of four frailty instruments, including a pragmatic alternative measure using chair sit‐to‐stand (STS), and evaluated their abilities to predict poor health outcomes.

Elastic properties of FeSi

open access: yes, 2009
Measurements of the sound velocities in a single crystal of FeSi were performed in the temperature range 4-300 K. Elastic constants $C_{12}$ and $C_{44}$ deviate from a quasiharmonic behavior at high temperature; whereas, $C_{12}$ increases anomalously ...

The individual in the semiotic landscape

open access: yesGlossa, 2019
I present the extreme proposal that change spreads by virtue of its role in a system of social meaning. And since individuals cannot construct meaning on their own, they can play no elemental role in sound change.

Perceptual effects of lexical competition on Cantonese tone categories

open access: yesLaboratory Phonology, 2023
Speech perception can be shaped by factors such as lexical competition, synchronic variation, and language dominance. Listeners can use lexical information to categorize sounds and recognize words, but systematic variation may act to neutralize lexical ...

In search of isoglosses: continuous and discrete language embeddings in Slavic historical phonology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This paper investigates the ability of neural network architectures to effectively learn diachronic phonological generalizations in a multilingual setting.

Mixtec Sound Change Database 2.0: Integrating Tone Change

open access: yesJournal of Open Humanities Data
This paper introduces and describes the second edition of the Mixtec Sound Change Database (Auderset & Campbell, 2024), which now includes a module on tone change. Tone change is an under-researched topic in historical linguistics and is virtually absent

Using naïve listener imitations of native speaker productions to investigate mechanisms of listener-based sound change

open access: yesLaboratory Phonology, 2018
This study was designed to test whether listener-based sound change—listener misperception (Ohala, 1981, 1993) and perceptual cue re-weighting (Beddor, 2009, 2012)—can be observed synchronically in a laboratory setting.
