Mice produce ultrasonic vocalizations by intra-laryngeal planar impinging jets
Rodent ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) are a vital tool for linking gene mutations to behavior in mouse models of communication disorders, such as autism [1]. However, we currently lack an understanding of how physiological and physical mechanisms combine to generate acoustic features of the vocalizations, and thus cannot meaningfully relate those features to experimental treatments. Here we te...
متن کاملTurbulence in a microscale planar confined impinging-jets reactor.
Confined impinging-jets reactors (CIJR) offer many advantages for rapid chemical processing at the microscale in applications such as precipitation and the production of organic nanoparticles. It has been demonstrated that computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a promising tool for "experiment-free" design and scale-up of such reactors. However, validation of the CFD model used for the microscal...
متن کاملUltrasonic vocalizations by rat pups in the cold: an acoustic by-product of laryngeal braking?
Isolated rat pups respond to cold exposure physiologically by increasing metabolic heat production and behaviorally by emitting ultrasound. The relationship between these 2 responses was investigated by monitoring oxygen consumption, heat production by brown adipose tissue, respiratory rate, and ultrasound production during cold exposure in pups 10-12 days of age. All 3 physiological measures i...
متن کاملLaryngeal airway reconstruction indicates that rodent ultrasonic vocalizations are produced by an edge-tone mechanism
Some rodents produce ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) for social communication using an aerodynamic whistle, a unique vocal production mechanism not found in other animals. The functional anatomy and evolution of this sound production mechanism remains unclear. Using laryngeal airway reconstruction, we identified anatomical specializations critical for USV production. A robust laryngeal cartilag...
متن کاملHeat Transfer Characteristics of Swirling Impinging Jets
Impinging jets are used in a wide number of industrial cooling applications due to their high heat and mass transfer abilities. The current research is concerned with the effect of swirl on the heat transfer characteristics of jet impingement cooling. Two inserts were designed order to generate swirling flow. These two designs, “Swirl Insert A” and “Swirl Insert B”, were tested at various Reyno...
