extravagant than ever previously created before. The exterior elements of the dome during the Renaissance architecture period were impressive to many by themselves, the interior elements were unique as well. The acoustics inside of the dome were a major focus as well as the structure itself. The acoustics of multiple cathedrals in Italy were designed to enhance the hearing for the type of music that was performed at this time. The Renaissance introduced the use of “polyphony”, which is a…

Most people understand that fetuses are extremely fragile and should not be exposed to ionizing radiation; thus, health care providers utilize ultrasound for prenatal imaging. But how safe is ultrasound imaging? Is it safe enough to warrant a fetus’s exposure? Sonography is a safe choice for prenatal imaging, but there are some suspected risks involved. However, the benefits outweigh those risks as long as scans are completed appropriately, especially when it comes to the 3­D and 4­D ultrasounds…

Chapters Acoustics Acoustics is the properties of a space and, how sound is transmitted into it. There are four areas of acoustical concern. The first area is sound isolation, it is unwanted sounds that leak in to the auditorium that affects the performance. These problems occur through doors, windows, walls, flooring, ceiling and ventilation ducts. The second area the interior room acoustics it shows how a room size, shape surface and materials affect interior acoustics and how they could be…

Ultrasounds date all the way back to the year 1958. Ultrasounds use noninvasive waves, that go through the body, so others can see inside of that person’s body. One of the amazing things about ultrasounds, is that they have a frequency of 20 kHz of 20,000 Hz. This paper will talk about what ultrasounds are, how we use them, what is the application of an ultrasound in medicine, how each part works in the ultrasound machine. Another thing that this paper will be talking about, would be why…

to scuba divers using communication equipment has contributed to NOC developing speech mimicking capabilities. Due to these instances, NOC’s caretakers began recording his speech mimicking both under and above the surface of the water. Through these recordings, it was found that the rhythm of NOC’s speech amplitude and vocal bursts were similar to that of a human’s. Additionally, NOC would make, on average, three vocalizations per second with a break of 0.05 to 0.5 seconds between each.…

A Closer Look at Spasmodic Dysphonia Approximately 7.5 million Americans suffer from a voice disorder (NIDCD). Voice disorders are speech disorders characterized by irregular pitch, loudness, duration, and vocal quality that are inappropriate for an individual’s age or gender (ASHA-Def of communication disorders and variations).

A speech sound disorder can affect both children and adults, and subsequently can have a social or educational impact on individuals across the lifespan. Speech-Language Pathologists have taken an influential role in treating speech sound disorders. Treating the various speech sound disorders related to articulation and phonological disorders is important due to the…

the object before returning to the transducer. The strength of the echo is continually decreasing, and the time it takes to return is prolonged, resulting in multiple objects of decreasing intensity appearing. Acoustic enhancement occurs when sound passes through an area of very low acoustic impedance into tissue whose impedance is much higher. This appears as a hyperechoic region beneath tissues with abnormally low attenuation. Hyperechoic regions are brighter and the same color as the…
