Johns Hopkins researchers demonstrate the potential to regulate blood pressure using non-invasive focused ultrasound.

The range of materials that concrete contains scatters normal sound waves, making clear imaging difficult to obtain.

UChicago Medicine is using a new technology to destroy liver tumors without radiation, chemotherapy or even cutting the skin. Called histotripsy, it destroys tumors using sound waves. Amber Sikes was ...

Forget fad diets and sketchy supplements, your favorite song might be the key to staying thin. In a new study, Japanese researchers found that acoustic sound waves can influence how our cells behave — ...

I explain how certain sound waves could potentially harm humans under specific conditions.

In the ETH experiment, self-oscillations (blue-red) cause sound waves (green, orange, violet) to travel through the circulator only in one direction. Credit: Xin Zou Researchers at ETH Zurich have ...

In context: Sound waves typically propagate in forward and backward directions. This natural movement is problematic in some situations where unwanted reflections cause interference or reduced ...

Optical neural networks may provide the high-speed and large-capacity solution necessary to tackle challenging computing tasks. However, tapping their full potential will require further advances. One ...

The top layer represents the location of the sound source and the path of sound propagation (A). The bottom layers represent convergence zones with different sound propagation paths (B-F). Sound waves ...
