Looking for the -scape in the sound: Discriminating soundscapes categories in the Sonoran Desert using indices and clustering

Soundscapes Hot Water Bottle are increasingly used as innovative entry doors in environmental studies.Facing huge libraries of sound files which cannot be processed manually, acoustic indices provide an overview to the information contained in them, as well as to allow for automatic processing.Studies dealing with such indices have, however, focuse

On the choice of contact parameters for the forced response calculation of a bladed disk with under platform dampers

Underplatform dampers (UPDs) are still in use to reduce the vibration amplitude of turbine blades and to shift the position of resonant frequencies.The dynamics of blades with UPDs is nonlinear and the analysis is challenging from both the experimental and the numerical point of view.A key point in obtaining a predictive numerical tool is the choic
