Bolometers are most often biased by alternating current (AC) in order to get rid of low-frequency noises that plague direct current (DC) amplification systems. When stray capacitance is present, the respon- sivity of the bolometer differs…
The aim of this work is two-fold: to design devices for passive electric damping of structural vibrations by distributed piezoelectric transducers and electric networks, and to experimentally validate the effectiveness of such a damping…
Impedance spectroscopy is vital for material characterization and assessing electrochemical device performance. It provides real-time analysis of dynamic processes such as electrode kinetics, electrons, holes or ion transport, and…
Robust simulation is essential for reliable operation and planning of transmission and distribution power grids. At present, disparate methods exist for steady-state analysis of the transmission (power flow) and distribution power grid…
Although the photoacoustic effect is most commonly generated by pulsed or amplitude modulated continuous optical sources, it is possible to generate acoustic waves by moving a constant amplitude, continuous light beam. If the light beam…
In the electronic measurement of the Boltzmann constant based on Johnson noise thermometry, the ratio of the power spectral densities of thermal noise across a resistor at the triple point of water, and pseudo-random noise synthetically…
We study a linear inviscid model of a passively flexible swimmer, calculating its propulsive performance, eigenvalues, and eigenfunctions with an eye towards clarifying the relationship between efficiency and resonance. The frequencies of…
We demonstrate the simultaneous estimation of signal frequency and amplitude by a single quantum sensor in a single experimental shot. Sweeping the qubit splitting linearly across a span of frequencies induces a non-adiabatic Landau-Zener…
Acoustic radiation force is a net force experienced by an object under the action of an acoustic wave. Most theoretical models require the acoustic wave to be periodic, if not purely monofrequency, and are therefore irrelevant for the study…
We discuss how large amounts of steady-state quantum squeezing (beyond 3 dB) of a mechanical resonator can be obtained by driving an optomechanical cavity with two control lasers with differing amplitudes. The scheme does not rely on any…
Acoustic shock and acceleration waves in inhomogeneous fluids are investigated using both analytical and numerical methods. In the context of start-up signaling problems, and based on linear acoustics theory, we study the propagation of…
Inviscid hydrodynamics mediates forces through pressure and other, typically irrotational, external forces. Acoustically induced forces must be consistent with arising from such a pressure field. The use of "acoustic stress" is shown to…
Pulsatile flows are common in nature and in applications, but their stability and transition to turbulence are still poorly understood. Even in the simple case of pipe flow subject to harmonic pulsation, there is no consensus among…
A mathematical model describing the initial stage of the capture of oscillatory systems into autoresonance under the action of slowly varying pumping is considered. Solutions with an infinitely growing amplitude are associated with the…
Propagation of sound through a non-uniform medium without scattering is possible, in principle, if the density and acoustic compressibility assume complex values, requiring passive and active mechanisms, also known as Hermitian and…
The dispersion coefficient of the constant phase element (CPE) is typically treated as an empirical fitting parameter in the analysis of impedance spectroscopy data, with no clear physical meaning. Here we seek to establish a energy-based…
In speech processing pipelines, improving the quality and intelligibility of real-world recordings is crucial. While supervised regression is the primary method for speech enhancement, audio tokenization is emerging as a promising…
This paper reviews the application of coherent acoustic phonons in the form of piezoelectrically-generated surface acoustic waves to control the response of integrated photonic acousto-optic waveguide structures. We first address the…
Discontinuous shear thickening (DST) in dense suspensions leads to flow instabilities that limit processing in many systems. While high-power ultrasound has been reported to reduce the apparent viscosity of such materials, the origin of…
As transistor sizes reach the mesoscopic scale, the limitations of traditional methods in ensuring thermodynamic consistency have made power dissipation optimization in transistor amplifiers a critical challenge. Based on stochastic…
