Beneath sci-fi sound: Primer, science fiction sound design, and American independent cinema

open access: yesAlphaville: Journal of Film and Screen Media, 2012
Primer is a very low budget science-fiction film that deals with the subject of time travel; however, it looks and sounds quite distinctively different from other films associated with the genre.

Sound effects in translation [PDF]

open access: yesTarget. International Journal of Translation Studies, 2013
On the basis of a pilot study using speech recognition (SR) software, this paper attempts to illustrate the benefits of adopting an interdisciplinary approach in translator training. It shows how the collaboration between phoneticians, translators and interpreters can (1) advance research, (2) have implications for the curriculum, (3) be pedagogically ...

Modulation-frequency acts as a primary cue for auditory stream segregation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In our surrounding acoustic world sounds are produced by different sources and interfere with each other before arriving to the ears. A key function of the auditory system is to provide consistent and robust descriptions of the coherent sound groupings ...

Sound source location modulates the irrelevant-sound effect [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 2008
Participants memorized lists of visually presented digits in silence or while ignoring distractor sounds that either came from the front and thus from the direction in which participants' attention was oriented, or from behind. Distractor sounds impaired recall performance, but the largest impairment was observed when the sound source was directionally

THE ACOUSTIC WORLD IN REALITY AND CINEMATOG RAPHIC ART [PDF]

open access: yesStudiul Artelor şi Culturologie: Istorie, Teorie, Practică, 2018
The acoustic world is the language of the environment we live in, everything that is beyond human speech. If we install a microphone in the middle of a particular space, it will capture its real acoustic language.

Shell Effects in the First Sound Velocity of an Ultracold Fermi Gas

open access: yes, 2007
We investigate the first sound of a normal dilute and ultracold two-component Fermi gas in a harmonic microtube, i.e. a cylinder with harmonic transverse radial confinement in the length-scale of microns.

Beam Misalignments and Fluid Velocities in Laser-Induced Thermal Acoustics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Beam misalignments and bulk fluid velocities can influence the time history and intensity of laser-induced thermal acoustics (LITA) signals. A closed-form analytic expression for LITA signals incorporating these effects is derived, allowing the magnitude

Investigation of a lattice Boltzmann model with a variable speed of sound

open access: yes, 2006
A lattice Boltzmann model is considered in which the speed of sound can be varied independently of the other parameters. The range over which the speed of sound can be varied is investigated and good agreement is found between simulations and theory. The
