Children hospitalized for an extremity fracture suffered dramatic declines in physical and psychosocial well-being during the first 3 months postinjury. By 1 year postinjury, most children recovered; however, children with a tibia and/or fibula fracture still reported significantly poorer physical functioning.
This paper is concerned with spatially-varying acoustic liner impedance in aeroacoustic ducts, in the presence of a high sound pressure level. It is shown that impedance discontinuity is a leading order parameter in the definition of the impedance variation. A large impedance discontinuity yields a high normal velocity variation, leading to significant nonlinear effects. An iterative numerical strategy is proposed to predict the spatiallyvarying acoustic impedance over a liner. A Bayesian inference process is coupled with a surrogate model to validate the model with measurements of the acoustic velocity fields above a liner at a high sound intensity, obtained using laser Doppler velocimetry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
