Tracking of Fin Whales Using a Power Detector, Source Wavelet Extraction, and Cross-Correlation on Recordings Close to Triplets of Hydrophones by Ronan Le Bras, Peter Nielsen, Paulina Bittner

“…Whale signals originating in the vicinity of a triplet of underwater hydrophones, at a 2 km distance from each other, are recorded at the three sensors. They offer the opportunity to test simple models of propagation applied in the immediate neighborhood of the triplet, by comparing the arrival times and amplitudes of direct and reflected paths between the whale and the three hydrophones. …”

Electronically Controlled Impedance Tuner for 5.8 GHz Band by Piotr Wilkon, Kamil Staszek

“…The tuning process consists of dividing the input signal among three separate paths with different phase shifts, applying attenuation to each path, combining the signals, and returning them to the transmitter, thereby mimicking reflection. …”

Evaluation of the Effect of Uncertainties on the Acoustic Behavior of a Porous Material Located in a Duct Element Using the Monte Carlo Method by Hanen Hannachi, Hassen Trabelsi, Marwa Kani, Mohamed Taktak, Mabrouk Chaabane, Mohamed Haddar

“…In the present study, this method is applied to a theoretical model predicting the acoustic behavior of a porous material located in a duct element to evaluate the impact of each input error on the computation of the acoustic proprieties such as the reflection and transmission coefficients as well as the acoustic power attenuation and the transmission loss of the studied element. …”

Hearing the Calls: The Need for an Ecumenical Theology of Monasticism and Consecrated Life for the 21st Century by Evan Bradford Howard

“…I review developments in thought and practice from each tradition in turn. Ultimately, I conclude that there is, in fact, a need for some kind of formal ecumenical and interdisciplinary reflection on the meaning of consecrated life, reflection that has remained incomplete at best for five hundred years.…”

Super Multi-View Near-Eye Display Based on Collimated Images From Waveguides by Yiping Lin, Lilin Liu, Dongdong Teng

“…Waveguides have been used as combiners for near-eye display in conventional three-dimensional (3D) display, guiding an image to each eye of the viewer by total reflection. Such near-eye displays suffer from manufacturing complexity of said exit pupil expansion (EPE), and Vergence-accommodation Conflict (VAC) inherent to the one-image-one-eye display mechanism. …”
