The sound system of Nàvakat
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this paper is to describe the basic sound system of Nàvakat, a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in the Nako village in Kinnaur (Himachal Pradesh, India). This is the first attempt to describe the sound system of any Upper Kinnaur language. The analysis presented here shows that Nàvakat exhibits many features which are typically associated with Tibetan. It shows especially close affinity with the sound systems of Tibetan varieties such as Tabo and Ladakhi. In all these respects, it differs from the sound system of Sangla Kinnauri – a West Himalayish Kanauri variety spoken in Lower Kinnaur.

Development and Validation of Sound Transmission Loss Measurement System for Measuring Muffler Performance
Muffler is a part of the vehicle exhaust system that absorb or reflect sound waves to reduce exhaust noise. One of the most important determinants of a muffler performance is the amount of attenuation that has on its input wave; this parameter is known as sound transmission loss. Four - mic standard test is one way to determine this parameter which is used in this paper. In this study, a test d...

متن کاملModeling and simulation of the acoustic behavior of a muffler in a passenger car exhaust system
Muffler is one of the main components of an automotive exhaust system, which reduces the noise of the exhaust system. In this paper, modeling and simulation of the acoustic behavior of a muffler is presented with the aid of an engineering software. For this purpose, firstly, an analytical model is presented to evaluate the sound transmission loss in cylindrical shells based on Sander's theory....
