Audio-based Positioning and Target Localization for Swarms of Micro Aerial Vehicles
Swarms of autonomous MAVs show great potential in many diverse applications. In a search and rescue mission, a group of MAVs could quickly reach disaster areas by flying over obstacles, cluttered and inaccessible terrains, and work in parallel to detect an ...
EPFL2015Virtual Reality for Architectural Acoustics
Over the last decades, powerful prediction models have been developed in architectural acoustics, which are used for the calculation of sound propagation in indoor and/or outdoor scenarios. Sound insulation is predicted rather precisely by using direct and ...
Taylor & Francis2014Advanced control for modifying the acoustic impedance at the diaphragm of a loudspeaker
Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet
The control of low-frequency sound fields can be addressed efficiently through acoustic impedance matching. Basically, the diaphragm of electroacoustic transducers are used as refracting surface that controls the reaction of the boundaries in any surroundi ...
2012Opto-acoustic coupling and Brillouin phenomena in microstructure optical fibers
Luc Thévenaz, Stella Foaleng Mafang, Duc Minh Nguyen
Like photonic crystals have revolutionized the way of manipulating optical waves at the sub-micron scale, phononic crystals have more recently played similar decisive role for sound waves, or more generally elastic waves. Then, the idea of coupling light a ...
IEEE2012A time-domain recursive method to analyse transient wave propagation across rock joints
The present investigation is concerned with transient wave propagation in a rock mass with a set of parallel joints by using a recursive method. According to the displacement field of a rock mass with a set of parallel joints, the interaction between four ...
Blackwell Publishing Ltd, Oxford2012Study on room modal equalization at low frequencies with electroacoustic absorbers
Hervé Lissek, Romain Boulandet, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet, Iris Rigas
Nowadays, requirements for acoustic treatments in rooms are ever more demanding in terms of performance and compactness. A recurring issue in closed spaces is the occurrence of standing waves and acoustic interferences at low frequencies. These unwanted ph ...
2012Backtracking of Colloids: A Multiparticle Collision Dynamics Simulation Study
Giuseppe Foffi, Maxim Belushkin
The role of sound in the dynamics of mesoscale systems is typically neglected, since frequently the associated time scales are much smaller than all the other time scales of interest. However, for sufficiently small objects embedded in a solvent with a suf ...
2011Monitoring of Steel Lined Pressure Shafts Considering Water-Hammer Wave Signals and Fluid-Structure Interaction
In the past, the safety margin for dynamic water pressure loads in steel-lined pressure tunnels and shafts was considered as acceptable by using conventional design safety factors. Due to high peak energy demands, existing plants are operating nowadays und ...
EPFL2011Seismic response of a single and a set of filled joints of viscoelastic deformational behaviour
Jian Zhao, Gaofeng Zhao, Jianbo Zhu
Rock joints are often filled with weak medium, for example, saturated clay or sand, of viscoelastic nature. Their effects on wave propagation can be modelled as displacement and stress discontinuity conditions. The viscoelastic behaviour of the filled join ...
Blackwell Publishing Ltd, Oxford2011Space/time-frequency processing of acoustic wave fields: theory, algorithms, and applications
Martin Vetterli, Francisco Pereira Correia Pinto
Consider a nonparametric representation of acoustic wave fields that consists of observing the sound pressure along a straight line or a smooth contour L defined in space. The observed data contains implicit information of the surrounding acoustic scene, b ...
