Acoustic lock: position and orientation trapping of non-spherical sub-wavelength particles in mid-air using a single-axis acoustic levitator
We demonstrate acoustic trapping in both position and orientation of a non-spherical particle of sub-wavelength size in mid-air. To do so, we multiplex in time a pseudo-one-dimensional vertical standing wave and a ... -
Are urban noise pollution levels decreasing?
The majority of acoustic impact studies developed over the last 50 years have used a similar acoustic parameter Leq, Ldn but the noise mapping methodology has been very uneven. The selection of the measurement points, ... -
Nonlinear trapping stiffness of mid-air single-axis acoustic levitators
We describe and experimentally explore a nonlinear stiffness model of the trapping of a solid particle in a single-axis acoustic levitator. In contrast to the commonly employed linear stiffness assumption, our nonlinear ... -
Numerical and experimental investigation of the stability of a drop in a single-axis acoustic levitator
Acoustic levitation can be employed to hold liquid drops in midair, enabling novel applications in X-ray scattering of proteins, amorphous crystallization of solutions, or contactless mixing. Multiple studies have characterized ... -
Simulación acústica de un evento singular en un entorno abierto: el Tribunal de las Aguas de la Huerta de Valencia
El Tribunal de las Aguas de la Huerta de Valencia, declarado Patrimonio Cultural Inmaterial de la Humanidad en 2009 por la UNESCO, es la más antigua institución de justicia existente en Europa. Cada jueves, bajo la gótica ...
