The purpose of this study was to investigate an influence of vibration waveform on magnetic resonance elastography (MRE). MRE is an innovative imaging technique for the non-invasive quantification of the elasticity of soft tissues through the direct visualization of propagating shear waves in vivo using a special phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging sequence. Since the elasticity of soft tissue calculates from the wavelength of propagating shear waves, it is necessary to propagate sine-wave-shape shear wave at the target soft tissue. However, due to the various factors; i.e. overload of vibration generator, poor contact between imaging object and vibration pad, etc.; it may be difficult to generate a simple sine wave. This work was focused on change vibration waveforms; i.e. square wave, triangle wave, saw-tooth wave; which is induced by the various factors. Phantom experimental results demonstrated that when square and saw-tooth waveforms of 25 Hz vibration frequency, into the phantom, the waveform of propagating wave was not similar to sine waveform. It may influence on the MRE that in case of the waveforms has low frequency and square or saw-tooth like waveforms.

In this Letter, we propose and experimentally validate a high-fidelity and adaptive forward-phase-based vibration sensing using a Wiener filter (WF). In commercial coherent digital subcarrier multiplexing (DSCM) systems under external cavity lasers (ECLs), frequency-domain pilot tones (FPTs) in subcarrier intervals are employed for dynamic frequency offset estimation (FOE), carrier phase estimation (CPE), and polarization demultiplexing. The phase estimated by the CPE module is processed with the WF to achieve high-fidelity extraction of the vibration-induced phase.

The dataset presented contains the experimental structural response, in the frequency domain, of a suspended steel plate to a point force excitation. The plate is excited by a mechanical point force generated by a Brüel & kJær shaker with a white noise signal input from 3.125 Hz to 2000 Hz.

Transducers used in acoustic logging while drilling (ALWD) must be mounted on a drill collar, and their radiation performance is dependent on the employed mounting method. Herein, the complex transmitting voltage response of a while-drilling (WD) monopole acoustic source was calculated through finite-element harmonic-response analysis. Subsequently, the acoustic pressure waveform radiated by the source driven by a half-sine excitation voltage signal was calculated using the complex transmitting voltage response.

Introduction: Vocal distortion, also known as a scream or growl, is used worldwide as an essential technique in singing, especially in rock and metal, and as an ethnic voice in Mongolian singing. However, the production mechanism of vocal distortion is not yet clearly understood owing to limited research on the behavior of the larynx, which is the source of the distorted voice.
Objectives: This study used high-speed digital imaging (HSDI) to observe the larynx of professional singers with exceptional singing skills and determine the laryngeal dynamics in the voice production of various vocal distortions.

Waveform transitions have high correlation to spike wave discharges and polyspike wave discharges in seizure dynamics. This research adopts nonlinear dynamics to study the waveform transitions in a cerebral thalamo-coritcal neural network subjected to a square sensory control via discretization and mappings. The continuous non-smooth network outputs are discretized to establish implicit mapping chains or loops for stable and unstable waveform solutions.
