The effect of traffic flows on urban soundscape dynamics and how to analyze it [PDF]

, 2004
Subjective evaluation of soundscapes considers without a doubt the change in amplitude and frequency of the acoustic signal over time. The urban environment can make these soundscape dynamics become rather complex and interesting.

Cellulose‐Nanofiber‐Based Layered Sub‐Terahertz Absorbing Sheets for B5G/6G Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
We report a sub‐terahertz absorber made of biodegradable cellulose‐nanofiber (CNF), potentially useful for B5G/6G devices to achieve electromagnetic compatibility in an eco‐friendly way. The absorber is 120 µm thick and consists of two carbon‐nanotube‐dispersed CNF layers and one pure CNF layer.
