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. Finally, NOC’s vocalization attempts shared one other similarity to human speech, which is that his fundamental frequencies varied from 200 to 300 Hz, which is considerably lower than usual for a whale (Ridgway et al. 2012). White whales produce sound…
Δfsw−coeff(푚,휃푣)=1−(1−Δfsw−nom(푚,휃푣))∗푘 (9) The coefficients are multiplied with the base switching frequency to provide the operating switching frequency of the inverter, as shown in Fig. 5. It should be noted that the base switching frequency magnitude does not depend on the sub-cycle current ripple variation and is typically adjusted based on operating current, speed and temperature of the traction drive [1]. SIMULATION RESULTS For the simulation study, a two-level inverter driving a…
1. Explain the difference between periodic and aperiodic waveforms. What are the visual differences? What are the characteristic sonic qualities of each? (2 points) Answer: A periodic waveform has repeatable patterns. Also, periodic waveforms have a tone. Most musical instruments have repeating periodic waveform. The periodic waveforms can also be found in bird sound and human vocal voice. However, an aperiodic waveform dose not have a repeating waveform and tone, like noise, the engine…
EQ:- Eq is often used to shape the tone of a vocal track. Which meanest is often used by engineers to enhance the tone, make the tone muddy, enhance the low ends etc. In EQ the first step I would suggest is to remove the low ends. Play around with the eq to remove the rumbles in the track and make it as clean as possible before putting on any effects or compression. Use a high pass filter to remove most of the low frequencies like the background noise. Use drastic eq to find out where the…
adjacent molecule the first molecule comes back to its original position. This process continues in the medium till the sound reaches your ear. 2.2PROPERTIES OF SOUND WAVES: Like light waves, sounds waves are also reflected, refracted, diffracted and exhibit interface. Sound is a mechanical wave and needs a material medium like air, water, steel etc for its propagation. It cannot travel through vacuum. Some of the major properties are stated below. 2.1.1…
The motion in the fastening reason for the unit might be supervised with vibration pickup and examined to determine the spectrum. These details may then be employed to set the shaker drive signal to proper spectrum shape and level. The best approach would be to arrange the machine to watch and control the amount instantly. The three functional limitations to the performance of electrodynamic shaker are displacement, velocity and acceleration. Shaker is operated by displacement at the lowest…
Polarization in Antenna Polarization is the basic thing used in transmission antennas for the propagation and reception of the signals. As we know that antenna emits electromagnetic waves in the space for the communication purposes. These two types of waves as depicted by the name Electro-Magnetic is a combination of electrical and magnetics fields. These two waves are mutually orthogonal i.e. oriented at an angle of 90o with each other. The general wave form is given as Fig: Electromagnetic…
Chapter eight of the text Sound and Recording by Francis Rumsey and Tim McCormick, discusses the principles of digital audio, and contrasts digital with analog. The text also illustrates how digital and analog work together to produce desired sound. In the world of audio there are two types; digital and analog. Analog can be described as physical or tangible in a sense, being etched onto some type of media. Digital however, is a representation of the audio waveform, which is converted into a…
Sound travels through matter, which is a solid, liquid or gas. Sound travels in longitudinal waves. There is also a vibration that starts on an object, and this causes a vibration on all the molecules. When these molecules vibrate, they cause all of the other surrounding molecules to vibrate. This vibration will spread from molecule to molecule causing sound to travel. 1. What is a wave? A wave is a chain of vibrating molecules. In general, a wave transfers energy from one place to another. 2.…
subsection{Experiment description} In order to validate this data procedure and estimation method, we carried out experiment on the ROMAC stability test rig as depicted in Fig. ef{fig2:subfig:a}. The fluid and magnetic bearing configurations were in cite{cloud2007stability}, and during the excitation process, the temperature of inlet oil was 37 ${}^{circ}mathrm{C}$. The shaft rotates at 3500 rpm, and the actuator #2 that is located at the node 47 in the FE model excited this test rig at six…
