Vibrations of the Air Column and the Reed in the Clarinet [PDF]

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1960
A small condenser microphone inserted into the mouthpiece of a clarinet enables the vibrations of the air column to be observed. At low intensities the pressure variation in the mouthpiece is practically sinusoidal; at higher intensities harmonics increase in amplitude, but the fundamental still predominates.

Programming Actuation in 3D‐Printed Micro‐Architectures via Interfacial Adhesion Control

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A two‐phase meniscus‐guided 3D printing method directly fabricates microscale poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) bilayers with in situ programmable interfaces. Modulating the meniscus stretching speed switches the interface between separated and bonded states, which controls the mechanical ...

Nonlocomotory Robotic Strategies for Dynamic Rotation Control in Terrestrial Robots: A Review

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Terrestrial robots increasingly require rapid body rotation to maintain stability and agility in complex environments. This review shows nonlocomotory rotational control strategies that operate without ground contact, including reaction wheels, tails, bars, limbs, and thrusters.

Technical Feasibility Study of Autonomous Field Robot‐Based on‐the‐go Assessment of Soil Nutrients Using Ion‐Sensitive Field‐Effect Transistors

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Autonomous field robots equipped with ISFET‐based sensors enable rapid, spatially resolved soil nutrient analysis directly in the field. An automated system based on the BoniRob platform is presented for standardized on‐site extraction and measurement of key macronutrients and soil pH.

Distributed Micropneumatic Sensors for Soft Robots to Detect Touch and Pose

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Soft robots need integrated touch and pose sensing for safe and reliable operation. This work presents a three‐fingered soft gripper with 18 micropneumatic sensors made from the same materials as its pneumatic actuators. By measuring airflow resistance changes in deforming microchannels of the sensors, finger pose and contact are detected, enabling ...

Vibrations of the reed and the air column in the bassoon

Journal of the Acoustical Society of Japan (E), 1989
Reed vibrations and pressure variations in the reed have been observed at the same time for the lowest note of a bassoon artificially blown. For comparison, the observations have been performed also for a cone simulating the bassoon and for a bassoon without tone holes. Behaviors of the bassoon and the bassoon-like systems artificially blown are fairly
