  2. Sound energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_energy

    Sound energy. In physics, sound energy is a form of energy that can be heard by living things. Only those waves that have a frequency of 16 Hz to 20 kHz are audible to humans. However, this range is an average and will slightly change from individual to individual. Sound waves that have frequencies below 16 Hz are called infrasonic and those ...

  3. Absorption (acoustics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_(acoustics)

    An example of a material in which absorption can observed: sound absorbing foam, also known as acoustic foam. In acoustics, absorption refers to the process by which a material, structure, or object takes in sound energy when sound waves are encountered, as opposed to reflecting the energy. Part of the absorbed energy is transformed into heat ...

  4. Acoustic metamaterial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_metamaterial

    Acoustic metamaterial. An acoustic metamaterial, sonic crystal, or phononic crystal is a material designed to control, direct, and manipulate sound waves or phonons in gases, liquids, and solids (crystal lattices). Sound wave control is accomplished through manipulating parameters such as the bulk modulus β, density ρ, and chirality.

  5. Acoustic wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_wave

    Acoustic wave is a mechanical wave that transmits energy through the movements of atoms and molecules. Acoustic wave transmits through fluids in longitudinal manner (movement of particles are parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave); in contrast to electromagnetic wave that transmits in transverse manner (movement of particles at a right angle to the direction of propagation of ...

  6. Surface acoustic wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_acoustic_wave

    Experimental image of surface acoustic waves on a crystal of tellurium oxide [1]. A surface acoustic wave (SAW) is an acoustic wave traveling along the surface of a material exhibiting elasticity, with an amplitude that typically decays exponentially with depth into the material, such that they are confined to a depth of about one wavelength.

  7. Mechanical wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_wave

    In physics, a mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a material medium. [1] (. Vacuum is, from classical perspective, a non-material medium, where electromagnetic waves propagate.) While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the medium of transmission—the material—is ...

  8. Acoustic quieting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_quieting

    Acoustic quieting is the process of making machinery quieter by damping vibrations to prevent them from reaching an observer. Machinery vibrates, causing sound waves in air, hydroacoustic waves in water, and mechanical stresses in solid matter. Quieting is achieved by absorbing the vibrational energy or minimizing the source of the vibration.

  9. Acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustics

    Acoustics is a branch of physics that deals with the study of mechanical waves in gases, liquids, and solids including topics such as vibration, sound, ultrasound and infrasound. A scientist who works in the field of acoustics is an acoustician while someone working in the field of acoustics technology may be called an acoustical engineer.
