Experimental data demonstrated that a direct current (DC) bias between the tip and sample in a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) could be induced by a radio frequency (RF) signal passed through a copper coil placed around the tip of the STM. A resonant response to the RF signal, indicated by an increase in the measured current, was discovered at certain frequencies, including 800MHz, 1.3GHz, ...

Time-harmonic acoustic waves in an ocean of finite height are modeled by the Helmholtz equation inside a layer with suitable boundary conditions. Scattering in this geometry features phenomena unknown in free space: resonances might occur at special frequencies and wave fields consist of partly evanescent modes. Inverse scattering in waveguides hence needs to cope with energy loss and limited a...

this paper reports the results of an experimental study on non-native production of english vowels. two groups of persian efl learners varying in language proficiency were tested on their ability to produce the nine plain vowels of american english. vowel production accuracy was assessed by means of acoustic measurements. ladefoged and maddison’s (1996) f1 f2 measurements for american english v...

In this paper, condition monitoring of a geared rotor system using finite element (FE) model updating and particle swarm optimization (PSO) method is onsidered. For this purpose, employing experimental data from the geared rotor system, an updated FE model is obtained. The geared rotor system under study consists of two shafts, four bearings, and two gears. To get the experimental data,  iezoel...

An efficient finite volume approach has been used to develop a three dimensional Helmholtz acoustic solver for complex geometries. This acoustic solver was utilized to obtain characteristic mode shapes and frequencies of a baffled combustion chamber. An experimental setup, including stationary and moving sensors, has also been used to measure these quantities for the same model combustion chamb...
