The Spherical Harmonic Family of Beampatterns

  • Kevin J. Parker and
  • Miguel A. Alonso

15 November 2022

The free space solution to the wave equation in spherical coordinates is well known as a separable product of functions. Re-examination of these functions, particularly the sums of spherical Bessel and harmonic functions, reveals behaviors which can...

The Importance of Noise Attenuation Levels in Neonatal Incubators

  • Francisco Fernández-Zacarías,
  • Virginia Puyana-Romero and
  • Ricardo Hernández-Molina

21 September 2022

Background: It is known that high noise levels can be harmful to preterm infants, causing physiological and psychological disorders. It is also known that premature babies spend a lot of time in an incubator. In this sense, many studies show that inc...
