Low frequency sound field reconstruction in a non-rectangular room using a small number of microphones

An accurate knowledge of the sound field distribution inside a room is required to identify and optimally locate corrective measures for room acoustics. However, the spatial recovery of the sound field would result in an impractically high number of microp ...

Joint Estimation Of The Room Geometry And Modes With Compressed Sensing

Pierre Vandergheynst, Hervé Lissek, Helena Peic Tukuljac, Vu Thach Pham

Acoustical behavior of a room for a given position of microphone and sound source is usually described using the room impulse response. If we rely on the standard uniform sampling, the estimation of room impulse response for arbitrary positions in the room ...

Vlasov simulations of electron-ion collision effects on damping of electron plasma waves

Stephan Brunner, Trach-Minh Tran

Collisional effects can play an essential role in the dynamics of plasma waves by setting a minimum damping rate and by interfering with wave-particle resonances. Kinetic simulations of the effects of electron-ion pitch angle scattering on Electron Plasma ...

On the design of unit-cells for acoustic metasurfaces

Hervé Lissek, Sami Driss Karkar, Seyyed Hussein Seyyed Esfahlani

Acoustic metasurfaces have gained popularity for their capability to tailor the phase front of transmitted and reflected waves. While most of researches conducted in this topic are spinning around different applications and peculiar physics of these surfac ...

Photonic Nanojet engineering: Focal point shaping with scattering phenomena of dielectric microspheres

Hans Peter Herzig, Toralf Scharf, Myun Sik Kim

We experimentally engineer Nanojets produced by dielectric spheres by varying the illumination and observe the effect with a high-resolution interference microscope (HRIM). Converging and diverging spherical wavefronts and Bessel- Gauss beams are considere ...

Validation study of the distinct lattice spring model (DLSM) on P-wave propagation across multiple parallel joints

Jian Zhao, Gaofeng Zhao, Jianbo Zhu

A validation study of the distinct lattice spring model (DLSM) for wave propagation problems is performed. DLSM is a microstructure-based numerical model, which is meshless and has advantages in modelling dynamic problems where stress wave propagation is i ...

Analytical study of S-wave propagation across saturated joints in rock masses

Gaofeng Zhao, Jianbo Zhu

Joints are important mechanical and hydrological features of rock masses, and they can greatly affect wave propagation and attenuation across jointed rock masses. Joints often contain liquid, and the presence of liquid will change the mechanical behaviors ...

An equivalent viscoelastic model for rock mass with parallel joints

Jian Zhao

An equivalent viscoelastic medium model is proposed for rock mass with parallel joints. A concept of "virtual wave source (VWS)'' is proposed to take into account the wave reflections between the joints. The equivalent model can be effectively applied to a ...

Theoretical Methods for Wave Propagation across Jointed Rock Masses

Jian Zhao, Jianbo Zhu

Different methods are presently available for the analysis of wave propagation across jointed rock masses with the consideration of multiple wave reflections between joints. These methods can be divided into two categories. One is based on the displacement ...

Wave field coding in the spacetime frequency domain

Martin Vetterli, Francisco Pereira Correia Pinto

We present a new method for compressing spatio-temporal audio data for reproduction through Wave Field Synthesis. The data is obtained by sampling the sound field in space at equally-spaced points on a straight line, and transformed into the frequency doma ...

Cellular dynamics explored with digital holographic microscopy

Benjamin Rappaz

Obtaining high resolution 3D quantitative images is critical for elucidating the relationship between cell dynamics and physiological or pathological processes. However the feasibility of such cellular dynamic studies is limited by the resolution of the 3D ...

Purely numerical compensation for microscope objective phase curvature in digital holographic microscopy: influence of digital phase mask position

Christian Depeursinge, Tristan Colomb, Etienne Cuche, Frédéric Montfort, Pierre Marquet, Florian Charrière

Introducing a microscope objective in an interferometric setup induces a phase curvature on the resulting wavefront. In digital holography, the compensation of this curvature is often done by introducing an identical curvature in the reference arm and the ...
