The inverted bucket steam valve is a key piece of equipment in steam systems. Optimizing its noise reduction performance via intelligent algorithms is crucial for enhancing the stability of steam systems. In this study, the nutcracker optimization al...

The identification of mixed monopole and dipole sound sources under highly randomized acoustic environments is of interest in many industrial applications. The DAMAS–MS method is one of the few methods that has been explicitly developed to addr...

Speech and language offer a rich, non-invasive window into brain health. Advances in machine learning (ML) have enabled increasingly accurate detection of neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders through these modalities. This paper envisio...

The operational phase of offshore wind farms, lasting up to 20–25 years, exceeds the construction phase in duration. The ecological effects of underwater noise demand serious consideration, necessitating urgent research into its acoustic charac...

Accurate spatial sound localization is critical in flight simulators for enhancing situational awareness and pilot training effectiveness, particularly for diagnosing severe faults like engine surge which emit directional sound cues. However, existin...

The accurate diagnosis of acoustic defects and the precise assessment of the performance of building components are highly dependent on massive amounts of sampling data. In this study, we try to combine the compressed sensing theory with the nearfiel...

Urban soundscapes are complex due to the interaction of different sound sources and the influence of structures on sound propagation. Moreover, the dynamic nature of sounds over time and space adds to this complexity. Virtual reality (VR) has emerged...

We present a novel formulation of the Rayleigh–Plesset equation to describe stable gas bubble dynamics in viscoelastic media, using bubble volume variation, rather than radius, as the primary variable of the resulting nonlinear ordinary differe...

This paper presents Vaulted Harmonies, a 66-min animated feature film created as part of the scientific outreach effort of the Past Has Ears at Notre-Dame project (ANR-PHEND). The project investigates the historical acoustics of Notre-Dame de Paris a...

A mathematical model of high-frequency geoacoustic emission for a single dislocation radiation source is suggested in the papper. The mathematical model is a linear Berlage oscillator with non-constant coefficients whose solution is the Berlage funct...
