The transmission of acoustic energy through a medium via a sound wave. See: Sound, Speed of Sound. Compare: Acoustic Radiation. The levels of outdoor noise, whether they are intrusive or the normal ...

The top layer represents the location of the sound source and the path of sound propagation (A). The bottom layers represent convergence zones with different sound propagation paths (B-F). Sound waves ...

An array of miniature turntables could offer a powerful new way to control the flow of sound. The proposed device, reported in the March 20 Physical Review Letters, would channel sound waves in a ...

In a breakthrough experiment, physicist and engineers have shown that it is possible to limit the movement of sound to a single direction without interruption even when there are deformations along ...

An undergraduate course measured and mapped the acoustics at LaVell Edwards Stadium The project informed where to place the new stadium speakers Crowd noise reached rock concert levels on critical 3rd ...

A contour map of the television (sound) transmitter at greater distances than the one already executed has been completed. Concurrently with this work, observations have been made on the effect of ...
