Sharp acoustic onsets were maintained across the stimulus set as the auditory N1 is sensitive to changes such as rise time (Spreng, 1980).
The overall effect is bright and breezily workmanlike, although wooden floors and a pin-sharp acoustic mean that any sound carries almost all too well.
Hard surfaces and sharp acoustics have become upmarket.
Due to the distinguishing room acoustics, a sharp decline of the energy may occur in some special subbands of the speaker's dedicated m th microphone signal.
Near resonance, a sharp non-linear increase in the acoustic Reynolds number is noted.
What the venue does have going for it is pin-sharp acoustics: so clear, you could shut your eyes and believe that O'Brien croons to you alone.
They make the very most of the Festival Hall's pin-sharp acoustics, swelling gradually so that Stevens's grief seems to ambush you, then offer celestial four-part harmonies as relief.
By focussing the ultrasound beams to a focal spot at a certain distance from its source, acoustic energy is converted to heat, and a sharp circumscribed lesion caused by thermal coagulation will be produced [ 10].
This behavior reflects in time domain the composite homogeneous line shape consisting of a sharp Lorentzian ZPL (corresponding to the long exponential dephasing) superimposed onto a broad acoustic phonon band (the initial fast dephasing).
