Sentence examples for acoustic mirrors from inspiring English sources

Such acoustic materials could be used for designing high-quality acoustic mirrors and filters in many frequency ranges of interest.

These forerunners of radar are huge "acoustic mirrors", resembling "listening ears", designed to concentrate into audibility those forms of distant noise (approaching aircraft engines, for instance) that would otherwise subtend the range of human hearing.

The propagation of bulk acoustic waves in a plane parallel to the surface of a silicon wafer was controlled using 45° acoustic mirrors, thus leading to the development of real time biosensing applications in a microchannel fabricated using ICP technology.

The acoustic mirrors and cavity structures based on PS have a performance which is at least comparable with that devices based on semiconductor superlattices.

In a project, which intertwines the remarkable origins of the historic mirrors with their presence today as poetic metaphors for cross-Channel relations, she plans to build two new acoustic mirrors.

Local historian Richard Scarth explains they're actually acoustic mirrors, made to catch the sound of approaching aircraft, and were a primitive early warning system between the wars but quickly rendered obsolete by radar.

Finally, the noise source distribution of real Shinkansen trains was measured with the acoustic mirror in a field test.

An acoustic mirror, which consists of an omni-directional microphone and a reflector, was chosen as a measuring device.

The resonators, formed by a simple sandwich structure consisting of bottom electrode, PZT thin film and top electrode, arranged on a planar acoustic mirror, were designed to give a resonance frequency of about 2 GHz.

First, the principle and characteristics of the acoustic mirror are discussed and a method of estimating quantitatively the aerodynamic noise generated by each part of the model is proposed on the basis of wind tunnel test data.

But what's construed as an attractive sound is historically and culturally shaped, as is the fact that men's voices are heard as disembodied, but women's as pure body: women are sound and men language, even though, as Kaja Silverman pointed out in The Acoustic Mirror, generally it's women – either as mothers, nursery workers or teachers – who induct the infant into speech.
