A team co-led by UC San Diego and the University of Michigan reports that short pulses of sound could remotely drag a structural defect through a metamaterial lattice, potentially letting researchers ...

A new series of simulations released by the state Department of Natural Resources on Tuesday show what parts of the coastline would be hit by tsunamis following a magnitude 9.0 earthquake off the ...

The top layer represents the location of the sound source and the path of sound propagation (A). The bottom layers represent convergence zones with different sound propagation paths (B-F). Sound waves ...

This array of piezoelectric sensors is designed to install in theaters and concert halls to harness sound wave energy to create electricity. This miniature proof of concept included 1,042 sensors, and ...

Today’s 3D integrated circuit (3D-IC) technology is the culmination of 40 years of research in universities and laboratories scattered across the globe. Beginning with dynamic random-access memory ...

Could invisibility cloaks become a reality? New research brings this science fiction concept a step closer, with a breakthrough software package that simulates how waves interact with complex ...

Researchers have uncovered a way to control material behavior using sound. In a study ...

In a new Physical Review Letters study, researchers have successfully followed a gravitational wave's complete journey from the infinite past to the infinite future as it encounters a black hole.
