This study was designed to compare different objective methods applied to study the hearing function in 132 children presenting with sensorineural impairment of hearing and deafness. It was focused on the assessment of risk factors of congenital and acquired loss of hearing and deafness. In addition, the factors influencing the efficacy and quality of electroacoustical correction of hearing in the children were considered including those of importance after cochlear implantation.

A self-reciprocity method is described for calibrating a spherical transducer in a spherical shell. The reciprocity constant is calculated using Green's function and the electroacoustic reciprocal principle in the spherical shell. A sensitivity correction is developed by calculating the transducer's receiving force in different fields.

The present paper discusses the scientific and technical problem of optimizing the design and characteristics of a new type of solid-state sensors for motion parameters on bulk acoustic waves in order to increase the signal-to-noise ratio and the detectability of an informative signal against the background of its own noise and interference. Criteria for choosing materials for structural elements, including piezoelectric transducers of the sensitive element, were identified; a corresponding numerical simulation was performed using the developed program; and experimental studies according to the suggested method were carried out to validate the obtained analytical and calculated positions. The experimental results revealed the correctness of the chosen criteria for the optimization of design parameters and characteristics, demonstrated the high correlation between the results of modeling and field studies, and, thus, confirmed the prospects of using this new type of solid-state acoustic sensors of motion parameters in the navigation and control systems of highly dynamic objects.

Ag/Ni contact material with greenery and good performance is a cadmium-free silver-based contact material that has been vigorously developed in recent years. However, Ag/Ni contact material has poor welding resistance. Based on the first principles of density functional theory, the interface model of Cu, C-doped Ag/Ni was established.

The traditional model of the Isolated Double Layer (DL) becomes inadequate in concentrated dispersions when the distance between particles becomes comparable to the Debye length and DLs overlap. The notion of "overlapping DLs" was introduced to Electrophoretic theory 60 years ago by Prof. T.

True wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds have become popular and widespread in recent years, and numerous automated pure-tone audiometer applications have been developed for portable devices. However, most of these applications require specifically designed earphones to which the public may not have access. Therefore, the present study investigates the accuracy of automated pure-tone audiometry based on TWS earbuds (Honor FlyPods).
