Caltech scientists have created a hybrid quantum memory that converts electrical information into sound, allowing quantum states to last 30 times longer than in standard superconducting systems. Their ...

They deliver packages, inspect power lines, patrol remote areas, find missing people and increasingly are deployed on the ...

A joint research team from POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology) and Jeonbuk National University has successfully demonstrated the complete confinement of mechanical waves within a ...

Technically speaking, sound is a simple phenomenon, consisting of compressional mechanical waves transmitted through substances, which exists universally in the non-equilibrated material world.

New research suggests that sound waves can influence cellular activity, including stopping the development of fat.

In this case, they wouldn’t have the silk emit a single noise-canceling note. Instead they created mechanical waves in the silk itself, with these waves opposing those of a sound played in the room.

This course is designed to provide a theoretical background on the propagation of elastic stress waves in solids with periodic variation in geometry or elastic properties, a review of experimental ...
