acoustic field
1Acoustic levitation — is a method for suspending matter in a medium by using acoustic radiation pressure from intense sound waves in the medium. Acoustic levitation is possible because of the non linear effects of intense sound waves. [Cite web… …
2acoustic mine — A mine with an acoustic circuit which responds to the acoustic field of a ship or sweep. See also mine …
3acoustic circuit — A mine circuit which responds to the acoustic field of a target. See also mine …
4Acoustic theory — is the field relating to mathematical description of sound waves. It is derived from fluid dynamics. See acoustics for the engineering approach.The propagation of sound waves in a fluid (such as air) can be modeled by an equation of motion… …
5Acoustic holography — is a method used to estimate the sound field near a source by measuring acoustic parameters away from the source via an array of pressure and/or particle velocity transducers. Measuring techniques included within acoustic holography are becoming… …
6Acoustic source localization — is the task of locating a sound source given measurements of the sound field at several disparate locations. Microphone arrays are typically employed for the sampling of the spatial sound field. Some have termed acoustic source localization an… …
7Acoustic phonetics — is a subfield of phonetics which deals with acoustic aspects of speech sounds. Acoustic phonetics investigates properties like the mean squared amplitude of a waveform, its duration, its fundamental frequency, or other properties of its frequency …
8Acoustic streaming — is a steady current forced by the absorption of high amplitude acoustic oscillations.This phenomenon can be observed near sound emitters, or in the standing waves within a Kundt s tube.It is the less known opposite of sound generation by a… …
9Acoustic metric — In mathematical physics, a metric describes the arrangement of relative distances within a surface or volume, usually measured by signals passing through the region – essentially describing the intrinsic geometry of the region. An acoustic metric …
10acoustic ecology — (uh.KOO.stik i.KAWL.uh.jee) n. The study of the relationship between living organisms and their sonic environment. acoustic ecological adj. Example Citations: More than a defensive tactic to fight noise pollution or block out sound, acoustic… …
