Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Pages 11299: Determination of the Sound Intensity Vector Field from Synchronized Sound Pressure Waveforms 4 diciembre, 2024
Visualization of vector acoustic fields using sound intensity measurements is a very interesting field of acoustics and has numerous applications. Unfortunately, sound intensity measurement itself requires specialized measuring instruments (presure–presure (PP) or pressure–velocity (PU)-type probes). This article presents a simplified and low-cost method of sound intensity measurement based on sound pressure measurements made synchronously. This […]

Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Pages 11308: Timed-Release Silica Microcapsules for Consistent Fragrance Release in Topical Formulations 4 diciembre, 2024
Microcapsules are widely utilized in various applications to preserve active ingredients for prolonged durations while enabling controlled release. However, limited release of active ingredients often hampers their effectiveness in daily-use products. In this study, we demonstrated the synthesis of silica core–shell microcapsules designed for controlled fragrance release in topical formulations. The microcapsules were synthesized via […]

Convolutional neural networks (CNN) and Vision Transformers (ViT) have long been the main backbone networks for visual classification in the field of deep learning. Although ViT has recently received more attention than CNN due to its excellent fitting ability, their scalability is largely limited by the quadratic complexity of attention computation. For the determination of […]
