Scientists have hypothesized for over six decades the possibility of observing a form of wave reflections known as temporal, or time, reflections. Researchers detail a breakthrough experiment in ...

According to the analysis of the correlation between wave overtopping and wave reflection within the same period, the reflection coefficient generally decreased as the overtopping rate increased.

Time reflections, or spatial reflections, occur when "electromagnetic radiation in the form of light or sound waves hit a mirror or wall, respectively," resulting in a reflection, like a mirror ...

Their analysis reveals that the rate of change in tube cross-sectional area represents a critical parameter governing pressure wave attenuation in such systems.

New research by University at Buffalo and University of Colorado Boulder mathematicians has uncovered and characterized novel two-dimensional wave patterns — waves that propagate along two ...

The outer portion of the external ear reflects sound towards the ear canal. Once in the ear canal, the pressure waves are aligned so they strike the ear drum at right angles. The reflection of sounds ...
