Acoustic sources within the "jet pipe" also contribute to the noise, mainly at lower speeds, which include combustion noise, and sounds produced by interactions of a turbulent stream with fans, compressors, and turbine systems. [1] The jet mixing sound is created by the turbulent mixing of a jet with the ambient fluid, in most cases, air.
Neuronal activity at the microscopic level has a stochastic character, with atomic collisions and agitation, that may be termed "noise." [4] While it isn't clear on what theoretical basis neuronal responses involved in perceptual processes can be segregated into a "neuronal noise" versus a "signal" component, and how such a proposed dichotomy could be corroborated empirically, a number of ...
Individuals with exploding head syndrome hear or experience loud imagined noises as they are falling asleep or are waking up, have a strong, often frightened emotional reaction to the sound, and do not report significant pain; around 10% of people also experience visual disturbances like perceiving visual static, lightning, or flashes of light.
Noise pollution, or sound pollution, is the propagation of noise or sound with potential harmful effects on humans and animals.The source of outdoor noise worldwide is mainly caused by machines, transport and propagation systems.
Aeroacoustics is a branch of acoustics that studies noise generation via either turbulent fluid motion or aerodynamic forces interacting with surfaces. Noise generation can also be associated with periodically varying flows. A notable example of this phenomenon is the Aeolian tones produced by wind blowing over fixed objects.
When you're shopping for a new pair of headphones one of the best features to have is noise-cancelling technology. Drowning out the random noises around you lets you really sink into the music, or ...
For a brief period of time on Monday, it sounded a bit like things were cranking up for the Stuart Air Show.
Noise-generating aircraft propeller. Aircraft noise is noise pollution produced by an aircraft or its components, whether on the ground while parked such as auxiliary power units, while taxiing, on run-up from propeller and jet exhaust, during takeoff, underneath and lateral to departure and arrival paths, over-flying while en route, or during landing.
