The RIOE and LITE arrays were operational between 2006 and 2013, recording thousands of infrasound signals originating from eruptions of Tungurahua, El Reventador, and Sangay. We use Progressive Multi-Channel Correlation array processing together with hierarchical clustering to identify and associate impulsive infrasound signals with each volcano. Infrasound detections correspond to quasi-continuous activity of Sangay between mid 2006 and mid 2012, at least thirteen periods of activity of Tungurahua between 2006 and mid 2012, and strong signals from El Reventador in early 2008. We validate our detections using satellite observations from the MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) volcano detection algorithm (MODVOLC) and independent eruption catalogs. For Sangay, we find a good agreement between our infrasound detections and MODVOLC triggers, whereas for El Reventador the agreement is fair. We attribute the fair correspondence at El Reventador to the low-temporal resolution of MODIS data and frequent cloud cover in the region that reduce satellite observational capability. Finally, our study highlights the benefits of infrasound arrays for monitoring volcanoes in Ecuador at regional distances, while further investigating the processes that limit volcanic infrasound detection.","PeriodicalId":394589,"journal":{"name":"179th Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America","volume":"28 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120819392","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The only significant predictor of VOT was voicing of the stops.

Standard procedure is to identify landmarks from the trajectory and its velocity. Here, an alternative procedure is presented: higher order derivatives can be used to identify gesture onsets. High-order derivatives are generally associated with signal noise and not considered to be meaningful, but more broadly, they reflect rapid changes in acceleration, which can derive from sources other than random noise. It’s demonstrated that such high-order activity at gesture onsets is both predicted by the Task Dynamic Model of speech production (Saltzman & Munhall 1989) and observed in real electromagnetic articulography (EMA) data. Articulator trajectories generated with the Task Dynamics Application (TADA) Matlab implementation of this model (Nam & Goldstein 2004) show a pattern of increasing activity around changes in gestural activation and decreasing activity elsewhere as successive derivatives are taken. This was confirmed in EMA data on glides, demonstrating not only that the effect is real, but that it can be measurable above other noise. This activation noise can be isolated with targeted filtering, and may yield further insights into speech motor control.","PeriodicalId":394589,"journal":{"name":"179th Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127107374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, the structure under test is required to have a reflective surface. Application has so far been limited to ideal mirror-finished planar objects. An experiment is constructed to test the effectiveness of add-on reflective material on non-reflective planar panels for deflectometry measurements, using a collection of adhesive tapes, film, and spray. The structural deflection due to a point impact is measured, and results for each add-on material are then compared and discussed. The findings indicate that tapes, while cheap, are manufactured without strict tolerances on thickness, causing distortions in the reflected image and therefore the deflection plots. Film can be applied with limited success, but further testing is required to refine the application method. Spray-on reflective material, which is only applicable on transparent surfaces, produces deflection plots comparable in quality to those of an ideal mirror.","PeriodicalId":394589,"journal":{"name":"179th Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America","volume":"27 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115778850","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
