We combine active and passive acoustic measurements to improve the spatio- temporal imaging of hydraulic fracture growth performed under true triaxial confinement in the laboratory. 64 active piezo-electric transducers (54 P waves, 10 S waves) work in sour ...
This paper deals with active sound attenuation in lined ducts with flow and its application to duct modes damping in aircraft engine nacelles. It presents an active lining concept based on an arrangement of electroacoustic absorbers flush mounted in the du ...
The EPFL water vapor and temperature scanning solar blind Raman lidar is a research tool developed for atmospheric boundary layer studies. The lidar has raw spatial and temporal resolutions of 1.25 meters and 1 second respectively and offers a new vision o ...
River bank protection is a costly but essential component in river management. Outer banks in river bends are most vulnerable to scour and erosion. Previous laboratory experiments illustrated that a well-designed horizontal foundation of a vertical outer b ...
This paper proposes an efficient video coding method which utilizes audio-visual information, based on the observation that sound-emitting regions in a video sequence attract observer’s attention. The regions responsible for the sound are identified by an ...
