Vocal intensity is quantified by sound pressure level (SPL). The SPL can be measured by either using a sound level meter or by comparing the energy of the recorded speech signal with the energy of the recorded calibration tone of a known SPL. Neither...
The widespread use of polymer solutions in the chemical industry poses a significant challenge in determining optimal dissolution conditions. Traditionally, researchers have relied on experimental methods to estimate the processing parameters needed ...

Pressure recordings of footsteps during walking can offer a convenient biometric recognition method for applications in security, forensic analysis, and health monitoring. However, footsteps can exhibit high variability due to a complex interplay of ...
Biological agents have bodies that are composed mostly of soft tissue. Researchers have resorted to soft bodies to investigate Artificial Life (ALife)-related questions; similarly, a new era of soft-bodied robots has just begun. Nevertheless, because...
