It’s a question I’m sure was keeping you up at night: can you make an object spin with a sound wave? The answer, generally speaking, used to be no. Now, though, mechanical engineers have taken a look ...
When you think of visualizing sound, you might think of the iTunes visualizers you used to play with years ago, or perhaps a waveform that shows the volume of a digital audio file comes to mind. The ...
The metamaterial structure the team designed is made of a single linear elastic material. (Courtesy: Yi Chen, KIT) An unusual type of sound wave that can travel backwards in space and has previously ...
