Active technologies can enable room acoustic diffusers to operate over a wider bandwidth than passive devices, by extending the bass response. Active impedance control can be used to generate surface impedance distributions which cause wavefront disp... Read More about Maximum length sequence and Bessel diffusers using active technologies.

In this paper, we study the boundary element solution of Laplace's equation using a Galerkin method with multiwavelet basis functions. This leads to significant matrix compression, requiring computation of only θ(n log n) elements. We prove the θ(n l...

Although strategies to tackle obesity have led to renewed debate about the relationship between the body and urban form the (im)mobilities of fat through bodies, cities, and infrastructure reveal a complex web of urban metabolisms. We argue that, to... Read More about Metabolism of Obe-city: Flows of fat through bodies, cities, and sewers.
