In consideration of physical and chemical properties of pure substances, speed of sound is one of important quantity which can used to calculate many of other thermo-physical properties such as isothermal compressibility, Joule-Thomson coefficient, isobaric heat capacity and etc. These thermo-physical properties are the main parameters in industrial and chemical processes. Development of accura...

Executive function (EF) and language learning play a prominent role in early childhood development. Empirical research continues to point to a concurrent relation between these two faculties. What has been given little attention, however, is the association between EF and speech articulation abilities in children. This study investigated this relation in children aged 4-6 years. Significant cor...

The present in used distance education system is based on audiovisual communications. So when a teacher gives lessons to many students who are dispersed in distant places, the teacher obtains input from students through image and sound information. The students can be visually distinguished by separately displaying an active picture and a non-active background. But it is hard to distinguish the...

This paper proposes an argument-based semantics for combined epistemic and practical reasoning, taking seriously the idea that in certain contexts epistemic reasoning is sceptical while practical reasoning is credulous. The new semantics combines grounded and preferred semantics. A dialectical proof theory is defined which is sound and complete with respect to this semantics and which combines ...

We investigated the issue of noise pollution in the Bidboland gas refineryby noise measurement and surveys. The Bidboland gas refinery has several process units.The sound pressure levels were measured at several places, such as units of 200, 300,400, 500, boiler, powerhouse area, cooling towers pumps, and maintenance area, and thecorresponding noise maps were produced by using sound plan softwa...

The active noise control of sinusoidal sound in free space has received considerable attention in the last few years. In a number of practical situations, the sound radiated in free space by extended sources needs to be globally reduced. This is the case of electrical power transformers, for example [1]. Nelson and Elliott have demonstrated that sound power attenuation can be achieved by active...
