Optimization and sound absorption modeling in Yucca Gloriosa natural fiber composite

Introduction: Nowadays, the acoustic behavior analysis of natural fibers composites has received increasing attention by researchers. In this regard, the present study aimed to optimize and model the sound absorption behavior of composites made of Yucca Gloriosa (YG) fiber via using a mathematical modeling approach. Methodology: In this experimental cross-sectional study, in order to fabricate...

Sound Wave Propagation in a Multiferroic Thermo Elastic Nano Fiber Under the Influence of Surface Effect and Parametric Excitation

This study investigates that the sound wave propagation of multiferroic thermo elastic Nanofibers under the influence of surface effect and parametric excitation via Timoshenko form of beam equations. The equation of analytical model is obtained for Nanofiber through shear and rotation effect. The solution of the problem is reached through the coupled time harmonic equations in flexural directi...

Fiber movements and sound attenuation in glass wool

The surveillant assemblage.

George Orwell's 'Big Brother' and Michel Foucault's 'panopticon' have dominated discussion of contemporary developments in surveillance. While such metaphors draw our attention to important attributes of surveillance, they also miss some recent dynamics in its operation. The work of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari is used to analyse the convergence of once discrete surveillance systems. The r...

Effect of Fiber Content on Sound Absorption, Thermal Conductivity, and Compression Strength of Straw Fiber- filled Rigid Polyurethane Foams

Rigid polyurethane (PUR) foam is one of the most important insulating materials used today in the construction industry and is the main insulation material used in the global appliances industry. This study developed rice straw fiber-filled PUF (RPUF) and wheat straw fiber-filled PUF (WPUF) and explored the morphology, sound absorption properties, heat transfer, and compressive strength of the ...
