Researchers have pioneered the use of parallel computing on graphics cards to simulate acoustic turbulence. This type of simulation, which previously required a supercomputer, can now be performed on ...

The metamaterial structure the team designed is made of a single linear elastic material. (Courtesy: Yi Chen, KIT) An unusual type of sound wave that can travel backwards in space and has previously ...

Absorbing excess sound to make public environments like theaters and concert halls safer for hearing and using the unwanted sound waves to create electricity is the aim of a new paper. The authors ...
