Effect of magnon–phonon interaction on transverse acoustic phonon excitation at finite temperature

A magnon–phonon interaction model is developed on the basis of two-dimensional square Heisenberg ferromagnetic system. By using Matsubara Green function theory transverse acoustic phonon excitation is studied and transverse acoustic phonon excitation dispersion curves is calculated on the main symmetric point and line in the first Brillouin zone. On line Σ it is found that there is hardening for transverse acoustic phonon on small wave vector zone (nearby point Γ), there is softening for transverse acoustic phonon on the softening zone and there is hardening for transverse acoustic phonon near point M. On line Δ it is found there is no softening and hardening for transverse acoustic phonon. On line Z it is found that there is softening for transverse acoustic phonon on small wave vector zone (nearby point X) and there is hardening for transverse acoustic phonon nearby point M. The influences of various parameters on transverse acoustic phonon excitation are also explored and it is found that the coupling of the magnon–phonon and the spin wave stiffness constant play an important role for the softening of transverse acoustic phonon.

Modification of the parabolic approximation in the theory of ultrasonic-beam diffraction in a strongly anisotropic crystal

A modification of the parabolic approximation of the diffraction theory is based on the approximation of the wave surface with allowance for the shape of the angular spectrum of the ultrasonic beam. It is demonstrated that such an approach is more accurate in the analysis of the acoustic field at a relatively high diffraction divergence and/or high acoustic anisotropy. An acoustic field is simulated in paratellurite, which is a leading acoustic material with anomalously high acoustic anisotropy.     

Measurement of acoustic particle velocities in enclosed sound field: Assessment of two Laser Doppler Velocimetry measuring systems

The performances of two Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV) systems adapted for measuring the acoustic particle velocities are assessed in enclosed sound field. This assessment is performed by comparing the acoustic velocities measured by means of LDV to reference acoustic velocities estimated from sound pressure measurements. The two LDV systems are based on a single optical bench which delivers an optical signal called Doppler signal. The Doppler signal, which is frequency modulated, is analyzed by means of two signal processing systems, the BSA (Burst Spectrum Analyser from Dantec) on the one hand, and a system specifically developed for the estimation of the acoustic velocity on the other hand. Once the experimental setup has been optimized for minimizing the errors made on the reference velocities, the assessment is performed and shows that both systems can measure the acoustic velocity in enclosed field in two the frequency ranges [0-4 kHz] and [0-2 kHz] respectively for acoustic velocity amplitudes of 10 mm/s and 1 mm/s.     

Effect of magnon-phonon interaction on phonon damping of two-dimensional Heisenberg ferromagnetic system at finite temperature

A magnon-phonon interaction model is developed on the basis of a two-dimensional square Heisenberg ferromagnetic system. By using Matsubara Green function theory we studied the transverse and longitudinal acoustic phonon dampings and calculated the transverse and longitudinal acoustic phonon damping curves on the main symmetric point and line in the first Brillouin zone. It is found that on the line Δ there is no damping for transverse acoustic phonon and on the line Z there is no damping for longitudinal acoustic phonon. In the first Brillouin zone the damping of transverse acoustic phonons is at least one order larger than that of longitudinal acoustic phonons. The influences of various parameters on transverse and longitudinal acoustic phonon dampings are discussed and the lifetime and the density of state of transverse and longitudinal acoustic phonons are explored as well according to the relation of the phonon damping and its lifetime and the relation of the phonon damping and its density of state.

A modeling investigation of articulatory variability and acoustic stability during American English /r/ production

This paper investigates the functional relationship between articulatory variability and stability of acoustic cues during American English /r/ production. The analysis of articulatory movement data on seven subjects shows that the extent of intrasubject articulatory variability along any given articulatory direction is strongly and inversely related to a measure of acoustic stability (the extent of acoustic variation that displacing the articulators in this direction would produce). The presence and direction of this relationship is consistent with a speech motor control mechanism that uses a third formant frequency (F3) target; i.e., the final articulatory variability is lower for those articulatory directions most relevant to determining the F3 value. In contrast, no consistent relationship across speakers and phonetic contexts was found between hypothesized vocal-tract target variables and articulatory variability. Furthermore, simulations of two speakers' productions using the DIVA model of speech production, in conjunction with a novel speaker-specific vocal-tract model derived from magnetic resonance imaging data, mimic the observed range of articulatory gestures for each subject, while exhibiting the same articulatory/acoustic relations as those observed experimentally. Overall these results provide evidence for a common control scheme that utilizes an acoustic, rather than articulatory, target specification for American English /r/.

Hydrodynamic cavitation for sonochemical effects

A comparative study of hydrodynamic and acoustic cavitation has been made on the basis of numerical solutions of the Rayleigh-Plesset equation. The bubble/cavity behaviour has been studied under both acoustic and hydrodynamic cavitation conditions. The effect of varying pressure fields on the collapse of the cavity (sinusoidal for acoustic and linear for hydrodynamic) and also on the latter's dynamic behaviour has been studied. The variations of parameters such as initial cavity size, intensity of the acoustic field and irradiation frequency in the case of acoustic cavitation, and initial cavity size, final recovery pressure and time for pressure recovery in the case of hydrodynamic cavitation, have been found to have significant effects on cavity/bubble dynamics. The simulations reveal that the bubble/cavity collapsing behaviour in the case of hydrodynamic cavitation is accompanied by a large number of pressure pulses of relatively smaller magnitude, compared with just one or two pulses under acoustic cavitation. It has been shown that hydrodynamic cavitation offers greater control over operating parameters and the resultant cavitation intensity. Finally, a brief summary of the experimental results on the oxidation of aqueous KI solution with a hydrodynamic cavitation set-up is given which supports the conclusion of this numerical study. The methodology presented allows one to manipulate and optimise of specific process, either physical or chemical.     

A new formalism for time-dependent wave scattering from a bounded obstacle

A time-dependent three-dimensional acoustic scattering problem is considered. An incoming wave packet is scattered by a bounded, simply connected obstacle with locally Lipschitz boundary. The obstacle is assumed to have a constant boundary acoustic impedance. The limit cases of acoustically soft and acoustically hard obstacles are considered. The scattered acoustic field is the solution of an exterior problem for the wave equation. A new numerical method to compute the scattered acoustic field is proposed. This numerical method obtains the time-dependent scattered field as a superposition of time-harmonic acoustic waves and computes the time-harmonic acoustic waves by a new "operator expansion method." That is, the time-harmonic acoustic waves are solutions of an exterior boundary value problem for the Helmholtz equation. The method used to compute the time-harmonic waves improves on the method proposed by Misici, Pacelli, and Zirilli [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 103, 106-113 (1998)] and is based on a "perturbative series" of the type of the one proposed in the operator expansion method by Milder [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 89, 529-541 (1991)]. Computationally, the method is highly parallelizable with respect to time and space variables. Some numerical experiments on test problems obtained with a parallel implementation of the numerical method proposed are shown and discussed from the numerical and the physical point of view. The website: http://www.econ.unian.it/recchioni/w1 shows four animations relative to the numerical experiments.     

Temporal measures of anticipatory labial coarticulation for the vowel/u/: within- and cross-subject variability.

The timing of upper lip protrusion movements and accompanying acoustic events was examined for multiple repetitions of word pairs such as "lee coot" and "leaked coot" by four speakers of American English. The duration of the intervocalic consonant string was manipulated by using various combinations of /s/, /t/, /k/, /h/, and /#/. Pairwise comparisons were made of consonant string duration (acoustic /i/ offset to acoustic /u/ onset) with durations of: protrusion movement beginning to acoustic /u/ onset, maximum acceleration of the movement to acoustic /u/ onset, and acoustic /u/ onset to movement end. There were some consonant-specific protrusion effects, primarily on the movement beginning event for /s/. Inferences from measures of the maximum acceleration and movement end events for the non-/s/ subset suggested the simultaneous and variable expression of three competing constraints: (1) end the protrusion movement during the voiced part of the /u/; (2) use a preferred movement duration; and (3) begin the /u/-related protrusion movement when permitted by relaxation of the perceptually motivated constraint that the preceding /i/ be unrounded. The subjects differed in the degree of expression of each constraint, but the results generally indicate that anticipatory coarticulation of lip protrusion is influenced both by acoustic-phonetic context dependencies and dynamical properties of movements. Because of the extensive variation in the data and the small number of subjects, these ideas are tentative; additional work is needed to explore them further.

The interrelation between acoustic context effects and available response categories in speech sound categorization

In an investigation of contextual influences on sound categorization, 64 Peruvian Spanish listeners categorized vowels on an /i/ to /e/ continuum. First, to measure the influence of the stimulus range (broad acoustic context) and the preceding stimuli (local acoustic context), listeners were presented with different subsets of the Spanish /i/-/e/ continuum in separate blocks. Second, the influence of the number of response categories was measured by presenting half of the participants with /i/ and /e/ as responses, and the other half with /i/, /e/, /a/, /o/, and /u/. The results showed that the perceptual category boundary between /i/ and /e/ shifted depending on the stimulus range and that the formant values of locally preceding items had a contrastive influence. Categorization was less susceptible to broad and local acoustic context effects, however, when listeners were presented with five rather than two response options. Vowel categorization depends not only on the acoustic properties of the target stimulus, but also on its broad and local acoustic context. The influence of such context is in turn affected by the number of internal referents that are available to the listener in a task.     

Design, realisation and analysis of an apodised, film-loaded acousto-optic tunable filter

The design and realisation of a SiO₂ film-loaded Ti:LiNbO₃ integrated acousto-optic tunable filter are presented. An optimised Hamming apodisation is achieved through introducing an angular offset between the acoustic and optical waveguides along with carefully placed acoustic absorbers. The realised device has a 20-mm acoustic interaction length and achieves a 3-dB linewidth of 1.8 nm with 19-dB sidelobe suppression. The realised device is highly efficient, requiring a RF drive power of only 10 mW to achieve complete polarisation conversion. The enhanced drive efficiency of the device is analysed using both acoustic and optical mode analysis. Based on this analysis, possible explanations for the improved behaviour are presented and directions that may lead to further enhancements are discussed.

Acoustic properties of proton exchanged LiNbO3 investigated by Brillouin scattering

The propagation of surface acoustic waves at microwave frequencies (10¹⁰ Hz) was studied on proton exchanged LiNbO₃ crystals by means of Brillouin scattering. The proton exchange causes a large velocity reduction for surface acoustic waves propagating in the x–y plane of ay-cut crystal as well as for longitudinal bulk acoustic waves travelling in the proton exchanged sub-surface region. The velocity reduction amounts to about 20% for both types of waves. The corresponding elastic constants are reduced even by about 40% since the density remains almost constant. This softening seems to involve both the shear and compressional elastic constants, but in an anisotropic way.Thus by proton exchange it is possible to build acoustic waveguides adjacent to the surface, similar to the construction of optical waveguides. By a lateral control of the proton exchange rate optical elements for ultrasonic waves, for example, acoustic lenses can be produced without deformation of the flat surface.The absorption of surface acoustic waves on proton exchanged surfaces is stronger than on pure LiNbO₃ indicating a novel absorption mechanism becoming active in the proton exchanged material.
