Influence of diffuse reflections on the playing of musicians (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

To date, there has been little evidence available on how musicians perceive diffuse reflections in the early sound field in comparison to specular reflections. Two series of subjective tests were conducted among musicians, one in a small room and one... Read More about Influence of diffuse reflections on the playing of musicians.

Difference Limen for level of music (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

A psychoacoustic experiment has been conducted to determine the difference limen (DL) of the level of music reproduced in a listening room. The effects of three factors on the DL were measured using up to twelve trained subjects. The factors were m... Read More about Difference Limen for level of music.

Characterization of polycrystalline Cu(In,Ga)Te2 thin films prepared by pulsed laser deposition (2001)
Journal Article

Thin films of the chalcopyrite compound CuGaXIn1-XTe2 (0=<X=<1) have been prepared by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) of prereacted material onto glass substrates. The structural and optical properties of these films have been investigated usin... Read More about Characterization of polycrystalline Cu(In,Ga)Te2 thin films prepared by pulsed laser deposition.

A genetic algorithm for the P-median problem (2001)
Book Chapter

Facility-location problems have several applications in telecommunications, industrial transportation and distribution, etc. One of the most well-known facility-location problems is the p-median problem. This work addresses an application of the capa... Read More about A genetic algorithm for the P-median problem.

Numerical modelling of time-dependent deformation around an underground mine in rock salt (2001)
Journal Article

Extensive in-situ and laboratory-based experimental work formed the basis for an assessment of the stability of an abandoned panel of Winsford salt mine, Cheshire, England, conducted by numerical modelling with the finite-difference code FLAC.

The modes of unstable optical resonators possess fractal character. In this paper, the fundamental question of how and why fractals originate in one of the simplest linear optical systems is addressed. The answer is related to the fact that unstabl...
