This paper presents analytical expressions to model the diffraction of plane-waves at planar 2-D distributions of printed dipoles. In contrast to other available analytical or quasi-analytical models, this approach rigorously captures the main underlying p ...
As audio reproduction systems evolve to incorporate many loudspeakers, the potential to evoke faithful auditory spatial impressions increases. Psychoacoustic principles of auditory spatial perception, and methods for production and reproduction of acoustic ...
The disclosed invention describes a new apparatus performing a new data acquisition for quantitative refractive index tomography. It is based on a linear scanning of the specimen, opposed to the classical approaches based on rotations of either the sample ...
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 ...
Discontinuities in rock masses greatly influence stress wave transmission. Before performing numerical modeling on complicated cases, benchmarking modeling must be performed first to validate the numerical code through comparison with theoretical solutions ...
A sound field on a line or in a plane has an effectively limited spatial bandwidth determined by the temporal frequency. Similar can be said for sound fields from far-field sources when analyzed on circular and spherical apertures. Namely, for a given freq ...
In search and rescue missions, Micro Air Vehicles (MAV's) can assist rescuers to faster locate victims inside a large search area and to coordinate their efforts. Acoustic signals play an important role in outdoor rescue operations. Emergency whistles, as ...
Sound field reproduction using Wave Field Synthesis has been so far limited to the positioning of virtual sources and listeners in the horizontal plane only although the underlying formulation (Kirchhoff-Helmholtz) describes the reproduction of 3 dimensional ...
The present investigation is concerned with wave propagation in micropolar thermoelastic solid half space with distinct conductive and thermodynamic temperatures. Reflection of plane waves incident obliquely at the free surface of micropolar generalized th ...
The paper reports on a graphical user interface developed in MATLAB to aid the visualization of the plane wave impinging from a lossless half-space onto a multilayer structure. Individual layers are assumed to be homogeneous and isotropic with electric per ...
