Electromagnetic Shielding Characteristics of Eco-Friendly Foamed Concrete Wall by Sung-Sil Cho, Jin-Man Kim, Ic-Pyo Hong

“…Industrial by-products such as ladle furnace slag (LFS), gypsum, and blast furnace slag (BFS) were added to manufacture foamed concrete with enhanced functionalities such as lightweight, heat insulation, and sound insulation. The electrical characteristics such as permittivity and loss tangent according to the foam and BFS content were calculated and measured. …”

Common Ways to See Differently: Race, Mestizaje, and Criollismo as Seen by Blind People in Chile and Venezuela by Luis Angosto-Ferrández

“…It demonstrates that visually perceived markers are not self-evidently constitutive of race as a social category. Participants show sound knowledge of racialized categories but also reveal significant differences in the identification of racial markers and in the way that race informs their understandings of mestizaje and criollismo in Chile and Venezuela. …”

Hypercorrections in a Western Basque text: What do they tell us about sibilant mergers? by Dorota Krajewska

“…As for Lubieta’s text, in previous research hypercorrections have been interpreted to be related to an ongoing merger in which the apico-alveolar fricative merges with the apico-laminal, and the remaining sound is the laminal. In Sarria’s speech, however, another merger pattern was present, in which laminal and apical fricatives merge in favour of the latter. …”

There was a silly teacher in Mâcon … Nonsense et écriture créative au service de la polyvalence en master MEEF 1er degré by Christine COLLIERE-WHITESIDE

“…Creative writing workshops based on children’s books such as Julia Donaldson’s Chocolate Mousse for Greedy Goose, on songs and poems, especially limericks, not only allowed those students to practice vocabulary and syntax, but also to work on phonetics.By involving creativity, these activities did not only improve these students’ sound awareness, they arguably helped to reconnect them with the English language, and sometimes to heal their relationship with English and with the difficult process of learning languages. …”

Smartphone-based indoor localization by fusion of acoustic ranging and PDR by Mao PANG, Mei WANG, Xiyu SONG, Liyan LUO, Kun RUAN

“…A novel indoor localization algorithm that integrates acoustic ranging and pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) algorithm was presented,to reduce the accumulated error of the inertial sensors in the process of indoor positioning using PDR.Firstly,the PDR was used for position estimation.Then,the distance between the mobile phone and the wall was measured by using sound waves,and the cumulative error in the PDR was corrected by combining the above position and the distance with the known indoor map information.Hence,long-term stable indoor positioning can be achieved without laying out any nodes.In order to solve the problem that the echo signals reflected by the wall under long-distance conditions were difficult to detect,signal enhancement on the echoes reflected from the target wall was performed by using beamforming,taking advantage of the characteristics of the built-in dual microphones in the smartphone,then the effective measurement distance was increased and the application range of the proposed method was expanded.Experimental results show that the average positioning error of the proposed fusion localization method is 0.427 m.Compared with the results of using PDR alone,the average positioning error is reduced by 2.748 m.…”

Chroni(qu)es new-yorkaises : City Life de Steve Reich by Antoine CAZÉ

“…This article analyzes Steve Reich’s City Life, a 1995 piece in which the American composer blends noises and voices he recorded on the streets in New York City with the sounds of an instrumental ensemble. We try to demonstrate that in spite of appearances, Reich does not merely propose a soundscape of the city or attempt to fit any preconceived sound rendition of a city; rather, we argue that through this work, he develops a properly political practice and theory of the city allowing him to go further in the direction he first explored back in the 1960s with It’s Gonna Rain. …”
