  1. 16. Design, Modelling and Control of Electrical Machines - With Applications to Iron-powder Machines and Acoustic Noise

    Författare :David Martinez; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; BEM; induction machine; noise prediction; vector control; acoustic noise; HEV; series magnetization; leakage reduction; thermal model; FEM; MEC; claw-poles; SMC; slip-ring-less machine; sound intensity measurements; vibration; Electrical engineering; Elektroteknik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of two parts, the first dealing with the design of iron-powder synchronous machines, and the second with the analysis and prediction of the acoustic noise in electrical machines. In Part I, a 1.6 kW electrically magnetized claw-pole machine with magnetically conducting end-plates has been analyzed and a prototype tested. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Drum sound from floor coverings - objective and subjective assessment

    Författare :Ann-Charlotte Johansson; Teknisk akustik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vakuumteknik; vibrationer; akustik; hydraulik; Maskinteknik; vacuum technology; vibration and acoustic engineering; hydraulics; acoustic standard; Mechanical engineering; tapping machine; veneer flooring; parquet flooring; binaural recording; foot impact; loudness; sound quality; listening test; paired comparisons; walking sound; drum sound; building acoustics; psychoacoustics; laminate flooring;

    Sammanfattning : Drum sound is the sound produced when an object, such as a foot, hits the flooring in the room in which the receiving ear is located. Drum sound has attracted interest in recent years, particularly due to an increased use of thin floating floor constructions, such as veneer or laminate flooring, which can produce loud and sharp walking sound.

  3. 18. Articulatory-Acoustic Relationships in Swedish Vowel Sounds

    Författare :Christine Ericsdotter; Olle Engstrand; Björn Lindblom; Peter Ladefoged; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Swedish vowels; articulatory modelling; MRI; Phonetics; Fonetik;

    Sammanfattning : The goal of this work was to evaluate the performance of a classical method for predicting vocal tract cross-sectional areas from cross-distances, to be implemented in speaker-specific articulatory modelling. The data forming the basis of the evaluation were magnetic resonance images from the vocal tract combined with simultaneous audio and video recordings. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Design foundations for content-rich acoustic interfaces : Investigating audemes as referential non-speech audio cues

    Författare :Mexhid Ferati; USA Indiana University; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Computer Science; Datavetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : To access interactive systems, blind and visually impaired users can leverage their auditory senses by using non-speech sounds. The current structure of non-speech sounds, however, is geared toward conveying user interface operations (e.g., opening a file) rather than large theme-based information (e. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Therapeutic applications of acoustic and electromagnetic energy

    Författare :Vilhelm Ekstrand; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on techniques based on electromagnetic and acoustic energy for treatment of a variety of diseases, including development of new techniques as well as improvement and evaluation of existing techniques. The subjects treated are: Provocation of heat generated thrombi in pigs. LÄS MER
