A comparison of impedance boundary conditions for flow acoustics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Acoustic liners remain a key technology for reducing community noise from aircraft engines. The choice of optimal impedance relies heavily on the modeling of sound absorption by liners under grazing flows.

Self‐Seeded Nucleation of PET in a Benign Solvent Yields a High Modulus Aerogel With Ultra‐Low Thermal Conductivity

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A new benign solvent (1,3‐diphenylacetone) enables a simple, safe, and sustainable dissolution and gelation method to convert waste PET into low density, monolithic aerogels with high mechanical strength (E = 20 MPa) and remarkably low thermal conductivity (k = 21.9 to 28.9 mW/m·K).

Experimental analysis of noise reduction properties of sound absorbing foam [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Plan BWood dust deposition had both positive and negative effects on the sound absorption properties of acoustical foam. Three layers of wood dust were deposited on acoustical foam in a 2.44 meter by 2.44 meter by 2.44 meter Plexiglas test chamber.

Advances in Magnesium‐Based Thermoelectrics: A Critical Review

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Magnesium‐based thermoelectric materials have emerged as promising candidates for low‐to‐mid‐temperature energy conversion due to their abundance, low cost, and competitive performance. This review summarizes recent advances in Mg3X2, MgAgSb, and Mg2X systems, covering transport mechanisms, fabrication strategies, stability challenges, and device ...

Factors affecting the sound insulation in the prefabricated buildings

open access: yesBudownictwo i Architektura, 2014
The sound insulation in buildings is affected by many factors related to various sound transmission paths between rooms. Among them the following paths can be distinguished: the so called direct path dependent on the sound insulation of the partition ...

Prediction and control of sound propagation in turbofan engine bypass ducts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This thesis contains original research into the propagation of sound in acoustically lined ductswith flow. The motivation for this work is the requirement to predict the sound attenuation ofacoustic liners in the bypass duct of modern turbofan ...

Weaving Intelligence: Thermally Drawn Multimaterial Fibers Toward AI‐Enabled Smart Textiles

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Thermally drawn multimaterial fibers are rapidly advancing as intelligent structural units for next‐generation smart textiles. Integrating multimaterial architectures with neuromorphic and spiking‐neural‐network principles enables fabrics that can sense, compute, and adapt autonomously.

Visibility, Sound Propagation and Exposure to Predators: Effect of Height on Birds’ Perch Use in a Meadow Habitat

open access: yesBirds
Elevated perches allow songbirds to better transmit their songs and increase the visibility of territorial displays, but there is a cost: increased predation risk.

Ferroelectric Dynamic‐Field‐Driven Nucleation and Growth Model for Predictive Materials‐To‐Circuit Co‐Design

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a compact dynamic‐field‐driven nucleation and growth (DFNG) model that captures ferroelectric switching behavior under arbitrary voltage waveforms. It enables extraction of time‐dependent domain wall velocity and growth dimensionality, which can then be extended to device‐level modeling.
