  2. Acoustoelastic effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustoelastic_effect

    The acoustoelastic effect is an effect of finite deformation of non-linear elastic materials. A modern comprehensive account of this can be found in. [1] This book treats the application of the non-linear elasticity theory and the analysis of the mechanical properties of solid materials capable of large elastic deformations.

  3. Audio crossover - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_crossover

    A third- or fourth-order acoustic crossover often has just a second-order electrical filter. This requires that speaker drivers be well behaved a considerable way from the nominal crossover frequency, and further that the high-frequency driver be able to survive a considerable input in a frequency range below its crossover point.

  4. Acoustic theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_theory

    Acoustic theory is a scientific field that relates to the description of sound waves.It derives from fluid dynamics.See acoustics for the engineering approach.. For sound waves of any magnitude of a disturbance in velocity, pressure, and density we have

  5. Nonlinear acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonlinear_acoustics

    A sound wave propagates through a material as a localized pressure change. Increasing the pressure of a gas or fluid increases its local temperature. The local speed of sound in a compressible material increases with temperature; as a result, the wave travels faster during the high pressure phase of the oscillation than during the lower pressure phase.

  6. Acoustic wave equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_wave_equation

    In physics, the acoustic wave equation is a second-order partial differential equation that governs the propagation of acoustic waves through a material medium resp. a standing wavefield. The equation describes the evolution of acoustic pressure p or particle velocity u as a function of position x and time t. A simplified (scalar) form of the ...

  7. Aeroacoustic analogy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeroacoustic_analogy

    The compressible NSE are rearranged into various forms of the inhomogeneous acoustic wave equation. Within these equations, source terms describe the acoustic sources. They consist of pressure and speed fluctuation as well as stress tensor and force terms. Approximations are introduced to make the source terms independent of the acoustic ...

  8. Stokes's law of sound attenuation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes's_law_of_sound...

    In acoustics, Stokes's law of sound attenuation is a formula for the attenuation of sound in a Newtonian fluid, such as water or air, due to the fluid's viscosity.It states that the amplitude of a plane wave decreases exponentially with distance traveled, at a rate α given by = where η is the dynamic viscosity coefficient of the fluid, ω is the sound's angular frequency, ρ is the fluid ...

  9. Acoustic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_resonance

    This equation comes from the boundary conditions for the pressure wave, which treats the open ends as pressure nodes where the change in pressure Δp must be zero. A more accurate equation considering an end correction is given below: = (+) where r is the radius of the resonance tube. This equation compensates for the fact that the exact point ...
