Chinese Syllable and Phoneme Identification in Noise and Reverberation

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2014
Chinese is a tonal language, which differentiates it from non-tonal languages in the Western countries. A Chinese character consists of an initial, a final, and a tone. In the present study, the effects of noise and reverberation on the Chinese syllable,

Advanced Trailing Edge Blowing Concepts for Fan Noise Control [PDF]

open access: yesINCAS Bulletin, 2012
This study documents trailing edge blowing research performed to reduce rotor / stator interaction noise in turbofan engines. The existing technique of filling every velocity deficit requires a large amount of air and is therefore impractical.

Surface Functionalization Modulates Collective Cell Behavior Near Topological Defects Induced by Topographical Patterning

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Strongly adhered cells align with concentric circular ridges and exhibit predominantly tangential motion, whereas weakly adhered cells fail to follow topographical guidance and display enhanced radial inward motion. ABSTRACT Living cells establish long‐range orientational order through collective alignment, giving rise to topological defects whose ...

Employing Frequency-Modulated Signals for Tonal Excitation in Airborne Sound Insulation Measurements

open access: yesEngineering Transactions
To enhance the similarity of acoustic insulation testing conditions in the laboratory, a tonal signal was employed as the excitation signal, reflecting real-world scenarios, such as transformer noise.

Post-tonal analytical techniques: Stravinsky’s symphonies of wind instruments [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The analysis of post-tonal music remains problematic. Analytical methodologies designed specifically for tonal or atonal music require substantial modification if they are to effectively analyse post-tonal works.

Life‐Like Ferrous Oxide Microspheres from Kombucha

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Kombucha bacterial cellulose, sodium alginate, and ferrous nitrate self‐assemble into membrane‐enclosed iron oxide microspheres. These microspheres bud daughter vesicles, sustain 24‐h electrochemical oscillations, and filter theta‐band signals.

Multivariable control of tonal disturbances using minimization of the maximum error signal through adaptive error signal weighting

open access: yes, 2014
In many multichannel active noise and vibration control systems the controller is adapted to minimize the 2-norm of the error signals. This may, however, lead to a large spatial variance in the residual error.

Hierarchical Multi‐Material Architectures With Gradient Design for Dynamic‐Range Flexible Tactile Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Hierarchical multi‐material TPMS lattices are engineered as flexible tactile sensors by combining soft and stiff elastomeric layers with a conformal conductive coating. The bilayer architecture delivers sensitivity at low pressures while maintaining a broad detectable range under large loads, enabling reliable pressure and vibration monitoring for ...

Muscle Control of an Extra Robotic Digit

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This study compares muscle‐ and movement‐based control for operating a supernumerary robotic thumb. While movement control performs better in the proposed tasks, muscle‐based (EMG) control promotes broader motor learning. The results highlight the promise and challenges of using biosignals for human augmentation, offering new insights into intuitive ...
