Abstract:
Sound and silence share the same psychoacoustical nature. Nevertheless, we normally analyze them as opposite and contrary phenomena. Yet both sound and silence require temporality, linear perception and contrast in order to be cognitively distinguished and understood. Contrast, as the essence of silence, also gives a greater variation of ways to describe sound, taking silence to be “no-sound” and thus permitting the existence of partial silence. Being aware of and applying this psychoacoustical essence of silence is all that is needed to be able to carry out an accurate audiovisual analysis of

Abstract:
In claiming that ‘nature speaks’, authors such as Scott Friskics and David Abram implicitly agree that language use is linked to moral considerability, adding only that we need to extend our conception of language to see that non-humans too use it. I argue that the ethical significance of language use derives from its role in dialogue, in which speakers make truth-claims, question and potentially criticise the claims of others, and provide justifications for the claims they raise themselves. Non-human entities (as a contingent matter) seem not to engage in dialogue in this sense, and none of t

À travers le prisme de la thématique du silence, l’auteur propose d’étudier la nature incomplète et l’état de désuétude de la Constitution canadienne. La conception du silence élaborée dans sa démonstration dépasse le simple mutisme, le vide ou l’omission pour s’étendre au « malaise » et à l’« hypocrisie » constitutionnelle. C’est à l’aide de cette conception, et en se basant sur la théorie des constitutional abeyances, que l’auteur veut démontrer que la Constitution canadienne regorge de silences substantiels, témoignant ainsi de son inachèvement.

Abstract:
Long neglected as a primary impetus of study, textual silences abound in such field disciplines as geology, where most field results seem to ‘disappear’ from the published research article. This paper first discusses the nature of textual silence and then proposes a typology of textual silences associated with written scientific discourse. Next, by examining the different disciplinary genres involved in the “recontextualizations” of a fieldwork study in geology, this study seeks to (1) identify textual silence in the various recontextualizations and (2) offer explanations for it.

It became clear that the phenomenon of Nature Silence can be actualised with the help of Nature and other landscape images in the field of English literary discourse.

Abstract:
Prevailing studies on silence and democracy, in spite of silence’s inherently ambiguous nature, focus on subscribing meaning(s) to silence. Such attempts of turning silence into speech, point to an adversary relationship between silence and democratic theory. First, this article conducts an onto-epistemological critique of democratic theory’s treatment of silence (as meaning). Second, it suggests that there are self-reflective analytical benefits for scholars of democratic theory should they broaden up their gaze from silence as meaning toward silence-as-doing.

This paper intends to unravel the nexus between sexual violence and silence in textual and figurative silence in female Holocaust survivors’ writing.

This dissertation examines the commercially released nature records that were produced by naturalists, scientists, recording engineers, teachers, musicians, and hobbyists from the 1890s through the 1970s. Though some of the general concepts about natural sound have remained remarkably consistent over time, their specific definitions and implementations are marked by moments of contestation and change. Early recorded natural sound practices were often both musical and narrative, relying on human intermediaries to set the scene and explain the sounds. Later developments in microphones and record

A Fuzzy Logic-based algorithm has been developed for processing a series of speech metrics with the ultimate goal of estimating train conductor alertness. The output is a single metric, which directly quantifies the alertness level of the conductor. The metrics were selected based on their correlation to alertness through processed speech, but without any interpretation of the spoken words or phrases. Metrics that are used include: speech duration, silence duration, word production rate and word intensity. The assessment of these metrics is an experience and human knowledge based task, which g

Abstract:
Many natural gas compressor stations which were previously located away from residential areas are now being encroached upon by surrounding building developments. Furthermore, an increased awareness of community noise issues has proved to be the impetus for investigating and developing more effective noise control methods and treatments for natural gas compressor facilities. This project investigates the feasibility of applying Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to the exhaust of a large, internal-combustion reciprocating type engine. Large reciprocating internal combustion engines pose significa

Abstract:
Corruption undermines many outcomes across development sectors, yet little is known about how social norms drive corruption or undermine anticorruption efforts in sector work. The conservation sector is no exception. The current study examined corruption and social norms related to infrastructure investments and site planning decisions and their subsequent effect on conservation outcomes. The study focused on the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park, one of four protected areas under the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Sustainable Interventions for Biodiv

Abstract:
In recent years, environmental regulations have tightened and community involvement in environmental issues has increased. The pipeline industry has responded by attempting to reduce the negative economic and environmental impact of conventional air-cooled heat exchangers, which are characterized by high noise levels, excessive energy consumption, and high maintenance costs. While industry has had limited success in reducing air cooler noise using silencers and timed variable-speed fans, these solutions are costly. The most effective noise reduction method is to reduce or eliminate noise at it

Abstract:
This interdisciplinaray work combines expertise in engineering and entomology in Israel and the US, to develop an acoustic trap for mate-seeking female medflies. Medflies are among the world's most economically harmful pests, and monitoring and control efforts cost about $800 million each year in Israel and the US. Efficient traps are vitally important tools for medfly quarantine and pest management activities; they are needed for early detection, for predicting dispersal patterns and for estimating medfly abundance within infested regions. Early detection facilitates rapid response to invasio

Abstract:
Original objectives: To understand the regulation of abscission by exploring the nature of changes of auxin-related gene expression in tomato (Lycopersicon esculatumMill) abscission zones (AZs) following organ removal, and by analyzing the function of these genes. Our specific goals were: 1) To complete the microarray analyses in tomato flower and leaf AZs, for identifying genes whose expression changes early in response to auxin depletion; 2) To examine, using virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS), the effect of silencing target genes on ethylene sensitivity and abscission competence of the lea
