Application of ultrasonic vibrations for minimization of the accumulation of limescale in steam irons
(Elsevier Ltd., 2018-06-01)The accumulation of limescale in steam irons can significantly reduce the ironing efficiency. It is this problem that inspired us to introduce ultrasonic vibrations to irons in order to minimize limescale accumulation. ... -
Identification of the Dynamic Characteristics of Luffa Fiber Reinforced Bio-Composite Plates
(NC State University, 2017-06-07)Luffa cylindrica plant fiber is a new biodegradable engineering material. However, the dynamic behaviors of these new green materials or their composites should be explored to consider them for practical applications. The ... -
Identification of crack noises in household refrigerators
(Elsevier Ltd., 2015-03-01)The crack noises propagating from a refrigerator disturb residents in a household; however, the reasons behind the mechanisms of such noises have not been identified yet. In this study, the crack noises in modern household ... -
Characterization of Viscoelastic Materials Using Free-Layered and Sandwiched Samples: Assessment and Recommendations
(Polish Physical Society, 2015-04-01)Viscoelastic materials are widely used in many applications in practice. However, determination of the elastic and damping properties of these materials is quite difficult in the sense that the identified results may contain ... -
A new triangular composite shell element with damping capability
(Elsevier Ltd., 2014-08-07)This paper presents a new triangular composite shell element with damping capability. Formulation of the composite triangular shell element is based on stacking individual homogeneous triangular shell ele- ments on top of ... -
Quantification of the flow noise in household refrigerators
(JVE INTERNATIONAL LTD., 2014-11-01)The flow noise in household refrigerators is quantified in this study. First, the sound pressure measurements in a quiet room using typical household refrigerators are conducted and the noise characteristics of the ... -
Quantification and minimization of sensor effects on modal parameters of lightweight structures
(JVE INTERNATIONAL LTD., 2014-06-01)This paper aims to quantify the adverse effects of contact type sensors on modal parameters of lightweight structures and to present a practical way for identification of modal parameters of structures with minimal sensor ... -
Acoustic particle palpation for measuring tissue elasticity
(American Institute of Physics, 2015-12-01)We propose acoustic particle palpation—the use of sound to press a population of acoustic particles against an interface—as a method for measuring the qualitative and quantitative mechanical properties of materials. We ... -
An assessment of the performance of impedance tube method
(Institute of Noise Control Engineering, 2014-07-01)The impedance tube method is widely used for measuring sound absorption (or reflection) coefficients of acoustic materials as a function of frequency. However, the sound absorption coefficients obtained using the impedance ... -
