Window Size Matters: Benchmarking Voice Activity Detectors in Noise
Alok Kumar, Mohit Srivastava, Anupam Purwar +4
Voice activity detection (VAD) sits in front of almost every streaming speech recognizer, yet the choice of detector is often made by feel rather than by measurement. We report a f…
Precipitation-dissolution cycling drives intermittent salt creeping
Javier Rodríguez-Rodríguez, Manikuntala Mukhopadhyay, Lijun Thayyil Raju +3
Salt creeping --- the precipitation of salt crystals away from an evaporating liquid interface along surrounding surfaces --- occurs across settings from geology and cultural-herit…
Viscoelastic material properties determine contact mechanics of hydrogel spheres
Chandan Shakya, Jasper van der Gucht, Joshua A. Dijksman
Granular materials are ubiquitous in nature and industry; their mechanical behavior has been of academic and engineering interest for centuries. One of the reasons for their rather…
Ductile-to-brittle transition and yielding in soft amorphous materials: perspectives and open questions
Thibaut Divoux, Elisabeth Agoritsas, Stefano Aime +37
Soft amorphous materials are viscoelastic solids ubiquitously found around us, from clays and cementitious pastes to emulsions and physical gels encountered in food or biomedical e…
Elongated particles discharged with a conveyor belt in a two-dimensional silo
Bo Fan, Iker Zuriguel, Joshua A. Dijksman +2
The flow of elliptical particles out of a 2-dimensional silo when extracted with a conveyor belt is analyzed experimentally. The conveyor belt - placed directly below the silo outl…
Crosslinker mobility governs fracture behavior of catch-bonded networks
José Ruiz-Franco, Justin Tauber, Jasper van der Gucht
While most chemical bonds weaken under the action of mechanical force (called slip bond behavior), nature has developed bonds that do the opposite: their lifetime increases as forc…
Sharing the load: stress redistribution governs fracture of polymer double networks
Justin Tauber, Lorenzo Rovigatti, Simone Dussi +1
The stress response of polymer double networks depends not only on the properties of the constituent networks, but also on the interactions arising between them. Here we demonstrat…
Non-local effects in the shear banding of a thixotropic yield stress fluid
Raquel Serial, Daniel Bonn, Thom Huppertz +4
We observe a novel type of shear banding in the rheology of thixotropic yield-stress fluids that is due to the coupling of both non-locality and thixotropy. The latter is known to…
Strand plasticity governs fatigue in colloidal gels
Jan Maarten van Doorn, Joanne E. Verweij, Joris Sprakel +1
Repeated loading of a solid leads to microstructural damage that ultimately results in catastrophic material failure. While posing a major threat to the stability of virtually all…
Connectivity dynamics in the vitrification of colloidal liquids
Ruben Higler, Johannes Krausser, Jasper van der Gucht +2
While various structural and dynamical precursors to vitrification have been identified, a predictive and quantitative description of how subtle changes at the microscopic scale gi…
Criticality and mechanical enhancement in composite fibre networks
Jan Maarten van Doorn, Luuk Lageschaar, Joris Sprakel +1
Many biological materials consist of sparse networks of disordered fibres, embedded in a soft elastic matrix. The interplay between rigid and soft elements in such composite networ…
