Bølgemekanik (vibration og akustik)

This volume gathers the latest advances and innovations in the field of flow-induced vibration and noise, as presented by leading international researchers at the 3rd International Symposium on Flow Induced Noise and Vibration Issues and Aspects (FLINOVIA), which was held in Lyon, France, in September 2019. It explores topics such as turbulent boundary layer-induced vibration and noise, tonal noise, noise due to ingested turbulence, fluid-structure interaction problems, and noise control techniques. The authors' backgrounds represent a mix of academia, government, and industry, and several papers include applications to important problems for underwater vehicles, aerospace structures and commercial transportation. The book offers a valuable reference guide for all those interested in measurement, modelling, simulation and reproduction of the flow excitation and flow induced structural response.

Sounds And Sweet Airs is a book written by John Todhunter, first published in 1905. This work is a collection of essays and critical analyses of the works of various poets, including William Shakespeare, John Keats, Percy Shelley, Robert Browning, and many others. The book explores the themes and techniques used by these poets, and Todhunter provides his own insights and interpretations of their works. He also discusses the role of poetry in society and the importance of literature as a means of expressing human emotions and experiences. The title of the book is taken from a line in Shakespeare's play The Tempest, and it reflects Todhunter's belief that poetry has the power to create beautiful and meaningful sounds and emotions that can touch the hearts and minds of readers. Overall, Sounds And Sweet Airs is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of poetry and literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Ear and Voice Training by Means of Elementary Sounds of Language is a comprehensive guide to improving one's ability to hear and produce sounds in spoken language. Written by Norman Allison Calkins and first published in 1889, the book is a pioneering work in the field of phonetics and speech therapy.The book begins with an introduction to the basic sounds of the English language, including vowels, consonants, and diphthongs. Calkins explains how to produce each sound and provides exercises to help readers improve their pronunciation.The second part of the book focuses on ear training, with exercises designed to help readers distinguish between similar sounds and identify sounds in different contexts. Calkins also provides tips for improving one's ability to listen and understand spoken language.The final section of the book covers voice training, with exercises to help readers develop proper breathing, pitch, and articulation. Calkins also discusses the importance of expression and emotion in spoken language, and provides guidance on how to convey meaning through tone and inflection.Overall, Ear and Voice Training by Means of Elementary Sounds of Language is a valuable resource for anyone looking to improve their communication skills, whether for personal or professional reasons. Its clear explanations and practical exercises make it accessible to readers of all levels, from beginners to advanced learners.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

To place this book in perspective it is useful for the reader to be aware of the recent history of the topic of underwater sound generation at the ocean surface by natural mechanisms. A meeting in Lerici, Italy in 1987 was convened within the NATO Advanced Research Workshop series, to bring together underwater acousticians and ocean hydrodynamicists to examine various mechanisms which generate sound naturally at the ocean surface. A record of that meeting was published in the NATO scientific publication series in 1988 under the title 'Sea Surface Sound'. That meeting was successful in inspiring and co­ ordinating both participants and non-attending colleagues to examine some key issues which were raised during the course of presentations and discussions. The understanding among those present was that another meeting should be convened 3 years hence to report and review progress in the subject. Accordingly the second conference was convened in Cambridge in 1990, whose proceedings are presented here. This volume represents a very gratifying increase in only a 3 year interval in our understanding of a number of physical processes which generate sound at the peripheries of oceans. In fact it represents both the acceleration of singular effort as well as the development of interdisciplinary sophistication and co-operation. The enthusiasm, goodwill, and intense scientific curiosity which characterized the Lerici meeting carried through to Cambridge. The collegial atmosphere established by the participants was perfectly timed to foster another major advance in studies of ocean surface sound.

This book entertainingly traces the history of physics from the observations of the earlyGreeks through the discoveries of Galileo and Newton to the dazzling theories of such scientists as Planck, Einstein, Bohr, and Bohm. This humanized view of science opens up the mind-stretching visions of how quantum mechanics, God, human thought, and will are related, and provides profound implications for our understanding of the nature of reality and our relationship to the cosmos.

The authoritative story of Rainer Weiss, Barry Barish, and Kip Thorne's Nobel Prize-winning discovery of gravitational waves-by an eminent theoretical astrophysicist and award-winning writer.With A New PrefaceIn 1916, Einstein predicted the presence of gravitational waves. One century later, we are recording the first sounds from space, evidence of the waves' existence caused by the collision of two black holes. An authoritative account of the headline-making discovery by theoretical astrophysicist and award-winning writer Janna Levin, Black Hole Blues and Other Songs from Outer Space recounts the fascinating story of the obsessions, aspirations, and trials of the scientists who embarked on an arduous fifty-year endeavor to capture these elusive wavesFive decades after the experiment was dreamed up, the team races to intercept a wisp of sound with two colossal machines, hoping to succeed in time for the centenary of Einstein's most radical idea. With unprecendented access to the surprises, disappointments, achievements, and risks in this remarkable story, Janna Levin's absorbing account offers a portrait of modern science that is unlike anything we've seen before.
