Introduction We at Sonos engineer premium audio products where delivering on user experience demands careful navigation of competing engineering and program constraints. Arc Ultra, Sonos' flagship soundbar, is the first to feature Sound Motion technology, a novel transducer architecture ... Read More
The so-called "LEViathan" is an experimental device for planetary science research. It acoustically levitates a tiny mineral sample with a diameter of ~2 mm and subsequently heats it with a laser to temperatures of up to 3000 K. The mineral therefore melts, forming a levitating magmatic ... Read More
Capacitive Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducers (CMUTs) fabricated on flexible polymeric substrates represent a transformative technology for conformable, non-invasive medical imaging. This work presents a rigorous computational framework for the finite element modeling, dynamic ... Read More
Open photoacoustic cells enable rapid gas exchange and continuous-flow operation but often suffer from reduced acoustic selectivity and increased susceptibility to external acoustic disturbances. In this work, we present a modified open photoacoustic resonator in which longitudinal slits ... Read More
Acoustic manipulation of cells offers a label-free, contactless method for a microfluidic platform for precise cell handling, cell analysis, investigation of cell–cell interactions, and 3D cell culture applications. With few exceptions, existing acoustic manipulation chips typically use ... Read More
Introduction In this work, we investigate two nonlinear partial differential equation models with variable exponents and analyze their dynamical behavior using COMSOL Multiphysics. The first model is a coupled Klein–Gordon system exhibiting finite-time blow-up, while the second model is ... Read More
Guided ultrasonic waves enable the inspection of large pipeline sections from only a few sensor locations, making them a promising technology for structural health monitoring of critical infrastructure. However, quantitative characterization of corrosion remains challenging because ... Read More
Pressure-gradient condenser microphone capsules are widely used in professional studio and live recording, where frequency response, directional behaviour, proximity effect, and diffuse-field performance must be balanced within a compact mechanical design. Compared with pressure ... Read More
