DOI: 10.1002/adma.202104552
Abstract: Noise pollution is a highly detrimental daily health hazard. Sound absorbers, such as the traditionally used perforated panels, find widespread applications. Nonetheless, modern product designs call for material novelties with enhanced performance and multifunctionality. The… read more here.

Do zoo animals use off‐exhibit areas to avoid noise? A case study exploring the influence of sound on the behavior, physiology, and space use of two pied tamarins (Saguinus bicolor)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "American Journal of Primatology"
DOI: 10.1002/ajp.23421
Abstract: Noise can be a known stressor but our understanding of its effects on animals living in zoo environments remains limited. Although exposure to loud, chronic noise may be expected to negatively impact welfare, providing access… read more here.

Affective iconic words benefit from additional sound–meaning integration in the left amygdala
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Human Brain Mapping"
DOI: 10.1002/hbm.24772
Abstract: Recent studies have shown that a similarity between sound and meaning of a word (i.e., iconicity) can help more readily access the meaning of that word, but the neural mechanisms underlying this beneficial role of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jeab.849
Abstract: Response-independent schedules involve the delivery of an item independent of a response requirement. Often described in the applied behavior analytic literature as "noncontingent reinforcement" (NCR), they have also frequently been used to reduce undesired or… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00158-017-1666-8
Abstract: A topology optimization approach based on the boundary element method (BEM) and the optimality criteria (OC) method is proposed for the optimal design of sound absorbing material distribution within sound barrier structures. The acoustical effect… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10164-018-0583-7
Abstract: Different strategies have evolved in response to predation pressure. Many species use acoustic signals to communicate about the presence of predators, and some of them use non-vocal sounds. Here, we evaluated the role of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11098-017-0880-y
Abstract: Timbre is that property of a sound that distinguishes it other than pitch and loudness, for instance the distinctive sound quality of a violin or flute. While the term is obscure, the concept has played… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13131-019-1505-4
Abstract: The estimation of ocean sound speed profiles (SSPs) requires the inversion of an acoustic field using limited observations. Such inverse problems are underdetermined, and require regularization to ensure physically realistic solutions. The empirical orthonormal function… read more here.
