In situ control of the helical and skyrmion phases in Cu2OSeO3 using high-pressure helium gas up to 5 kbar

Henrik Moodysson Rønnow, Arnaud Magrez, Ivica Zivkovic, Jonathan White

We report a small-angle neutron scattering study of the helical and skyrmion lattice order in single-crystal Cu2OSeO3 under quasihydrostatic helium gas pressures up to 5 kbar. By using helium gas as the pressure-transmitting medium (PTM) we ensure pressure ...

Development of a plasma electroacoustic actuator for active noise control applications

Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Hervé Lissek, Pénélope Leyland, Gennady Plyushchev, Stanislav Sergeev

Conventional loudspeakers generate sound through the vibration of a diaphragm, attached to a rigid frame through elastic suspensions. Although such construction is satisfactory for sound diffusion in steady environments, it is likely to fail in harsh condi ...

Ultralow-noise photonic microwave synthesis using a soliton microcomb-based transfer oscillator

Tobias Kippenberg, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas, Romain Dany Bruno Bouchand

The synthesis of ultralow-noise microwaves is of both scientific and technological relevance for timing, metrology, communications and radio-astronomy. Today, the lowest reported phase noise signals are obtained via optical frequency-division using mode-lo ...

Good Vibrations and Unknown Excitations

Dalia Salem Hassan Fahmy El Badawy

Inspired by the human ability to localize sounds, even with only one ear, as well as to recognize objects using active echolocation, we investigate the role of sound scattering and prior knowledge in regularizing ill-posed inverse problems in acoustics. In ...

Folded-Tube Soft Pneumatic Actuators for Bending

Wyatt Marshall Felt

This article presents a model and experimental results for a new class of bending soft pneumatic actuators (SPAs) made from a single section of thin-walled flexible tubing. The actuator is formed by creasing the tubing into fin-like rectangular folds and i ...

Active Times for Acoustic Metamaterials

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Farzad Zangeneh Nejad

Initially proposed to achieve strong noise isolation levels beyond the mass-density law, acoustic metamaterials (AMMs) have now overturned the conventional views in all aspects of sound propagation and manipulation. In fact, within the last two decades, th ...

Procedure for predicting part load resonance in Francis turbine hydropower units based on swirl number and local cavitation coefficient similitude

François Avellan, Christophe Nicolet, Sébastien Alligné, Christian Landry, Loïc Andolfatto, Arthur Tristan Favrel

Francis turbines operating at part load conditions develop a cavitation precessing vortex known as a vortex rope in the draft tube cone below the runner outlet. At part load conditions, this vortex precession acts as an excitation source inducing pressure ...

Low Frequency Sound Field Reconstruction in Non-rectangular Room: A Numerical Validation

Hervé Lissek, Etienne Thierry Jean-Luc Rivet, Vu Thach Pham

Characterization of sound fields in rooms has always been a challenging task. A faithful reconstruction of sound fields in rooms generally would require an impractically high number of microphones. At low frequencies, where sound field can be modeled as a ...
