It is important to remember that not all sounds are the same, and hence the methods used to characterize the loudness of sound differ significantly from one another depending on the type of sound wave. Since noise and its harmful health […]
Decibel Scale When looking at the most versatile and amazingly sound devices, nothing can compare to the human ear. With its ingenious internal mechanisms and physiology, the human ear can adjust its sensitivity to increasing sound levels and handle a vast array of sound power levels. In short, this astounding piece of natural machinery can […]
As the COVID pandemic spread in the United States, Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) in Boston became a regional epicenter for acute COVID patients. The number of patients increased, and MGH had respirators donated by the surrounding hospitals to meet the need. However, the alarms on the new ventilators could not be surveilled on the existing […]
