In her series “Sound Form Wave,” Ukrainian designer Anna Marinenko draws a fresh comparison between visualized sound waves and jaggedly oscillating patterns in our natural environments ...

A new technique takes yet another approach, however, by utilizing sound waves. 3D printing typically involves depositing layers of molten plastic, laser-melting powdered metal, or using UV light ...

Second sound is not sound as we generally think of it. It gets its name because in mathematical terms, the thermal waves moving through a material resemble the pressure waves that create sound in air.

A team of researchers has used sound waves to induce nuclear fusion without the need for an external neutron source, according to a paper in the Jan. 27 issue of Physical Review Letters. The ...

Teams working in England and the Ukraine have made a sonic laser, or "saser," which operates in the terahertz range, with sound waves oscillating more than a trillion times per second. Meanwhile, in ...

After about 700 milliseconds, the vibrations become so energetic that they create sound waves with audible frequencies in the range of 200 to 400 hertz, or around middle C.

Sound, in the day-to-day classical world, can be understood as a density wave in a medium. However, from the perspective of quantum mechanics, sound can also be described as a particle: the phonon.

Sound, one of the most ubiquitous physical forces in nature, is a compressional mechanical wave that transmits oscillating and fluctuating pressure through substances, researchers note.

The team demonstrated that sound waves in the bulb generate a force that pulls gas toward the bulb’s ... such as the dielectrophoretic force that arises in strong and oscillating electric fields.

In sound healing, the brain wave frequency locks into phase with an oscillating sound frequency from the use of instruments to vibrate in a calmer, harmonic state.
