A research team at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has discovered a new type of sound wave: the airborne sound wave vibrates transversely and carries both rotation and orbital angular momentum ...

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 ...

Forget fad diets and sketchy supplements, your favorite song might be the key to staying thin. In a new study, Japanese researchers found that acoustic sound waves can influence how our cells behave — ...

In the ETH experiment, self-oscillations (blue-red) cause sound waves (green, orange, violet) to travel through the circulator only in one direction. Credit: Xin Zou Researchers at ETH Zurich have ...

AMD's current-generation client processors can be broadly divided into two groups: chiplet CPUs and monolithic APUs. Currently, both have Zen 4 CPU cores and RDNA graphics, but the integrated GPUs on ...

Be it water, light or sound: waves usually propagate in the same way forwards as in the backward direction. As a consequence, when we are speaking to someone standing some distance away from us, that ...

Can you imagine sound travels in the same way as light does? A research team at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) discovered a new type of sound wave: the airborne sound wave vibrates transversely ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. We live our entire lives surrounded by them. They slam into us ...

It’s a question I’m sure was keeping you up at night: can you make an object spin with a sound wave? The answer, generally speaking, used to be no. Now, though, mechanical engineers have taken a look ...

Introduction How well do you know your eardrums? You probably know that your eardrum is an essential part of your ear, allowing you to hear the world around you. But why do we call it a drum? It turns ...

The celestial music released from the sun suggests that its outer layer has grown weaker over the years, according to new research from the United Kingdom. The sun releases sound waves, and like a ...
