The behaviour of ultrasonic wave propagation through liquid solution has become an important tool for studying physical and chemical properties of liquid solutions. The density, viscosity and ultrasonic velocity of of cholesteryl oleyl carbonate have been studied. From the experimental data various thermo acoustical parameters such as free volume, internal pressure and Rao’s constant and Wada’s...

Our aim is to show the possibility of a "vibrational Fréedericksz's transition" in nematic liquid crystals (LCs) consisting of asymmetric molecules (in the absence of the reflectional symmetry for the director field). For this purpose we study the effects of the external high-frequency vibrations imposed on LCs by employing the rigorous two-timing asymptotic averaging method to the governing LC...

The personal quality of sustained vowels uttered by eight male talkers was represented multidimensionally in a psychological auditory space (PAS) by means of Kruskal’s multidimensional scaling procedure based on the perceptual confusion in talker discrimination tests. Physical properties of the vowels were analyzed in terms of elementary acoustical parameters, such as formant frequencies, slope...

background: this study is the first research investigating the possible effect of pulsed power signals on the characteristics of cortical bone by comparing the mechanical properties of this type of bone pre and post expose to pulsed power. methods: a positive buck-boost converter was applied to generate adjustable high voltage, high frequency pulses (up to 500 v and 10 khz). the functional beha...
