  Theremin Vox - Stories - Theory - Sound and Hearing -
Particle displacement or particle amplitude ξ is a distance measurement in m (metre) of the movement of a particle(real or imagined) in a medium as it transmits a wave.
Particle velocity is the velocity of a particle(real or imagined) in a medium as it transmits a wave.
Velocity is a vector measurement of the rate and direction of motion.

  Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Particle velocity   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Particle velocity is the velocity v of a particle (real or imagined) in a medium as it transmits a wave.
When applied to a sound wave through a medium of air, particle velocity would be the physical speed of an air molecule as it moves back and forth in the direction the sound wave is travelling as it passes.
Particle velocity should not be confused with the speed of the wave as it passes through the medium, i.e.

in the case of a sound wave, particle velocity is not the same as the speed of sound.

 Sound
Particles in the medium are displaced by the wave and oscillate.
In a sound wave, the complementary variable to sound pressure is the acoustic particle velocity.
For small amplitudes, sound pressure and particle velocity are linearly related and their ratio is the acoustic impedance.

 Particle Measuring Systems - Particle Monitoring Requirements in Pharmaceutical Cleanrooms   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Particles are significant because they can enter a product as an extraneous contaminant and can also contaminate it biologically by acting as a vehicle for microorganisms.
Particle Measuring Systems recommends that measurements to confirm air cleanliness in critical areas be taken at sites where there is the most potential risk to the exposed sterilized product, containers, and closures.
The level of monitoring varies with the classification of the cleanroom dependant on the use of the area.

 Sound
In more technical language, sound "is an alternation in pressure, particle displacement, or particle velocity propagated in an elastic material" (Olson 1957) or series of mechanical compressions and rarefactions or longitudinal waves that successively propagate through media that are at least a little compressible (solid, liquid or gas but not vacuum).
A sound wave is usually represented graphically by a wavy, horizontal line; the upper part of the wave (the crest) indicates a compression and the lower part (the trough) indicates a rarefaction.
Amplitude is the maximal displacement of particles of matter that is obtained in compressions, where the particles of matter move towards each other and pressure increases the most and in rarefactions, where the pressure lessens the most.

 GRC | WIZMO - Steve's Windows Gizmo     (Site not responding. Last check: )
Since every particle gravitationally interacts with every other, large grids are time consuming to process because the number of computations increases by half of the square of the particle count ((Width x Height)^2)/2.
Since the trail is composed of the individual previous positions occupied by the particles, the resulting "trail length" is directly proportional to the object's velocity at that time.
Wizmo's graviton particles are normally prevented from leaving the visible screen through the presence of screen edge boundaries that cancel the particle's departure velocity.

 What is a Particle Counter?
Particles in the sample pass through the view volume and scatter the laser light; just as dust motes or smoke particles do in a sunbeam.
Ordinary particle counters do not characterize the composition of the particles, but can serve as a very sensitive ‘canary in the coal mine’ to track trends and report events in the air quality of a workplace.
They report that the military now employs portable particle counters to detect particulate level ‘events’ or surges that indicate the presence of new contaminants, and integrates these counters with test stations, which submit the sample to immediate testing to determine if the particles are biologically viable, and whether they match known threat profiles.

That is, their velocity vector is decomposed into components normal to the surface and tangent to the surface.
The particle colors, sizes, initial ages, velocities, and secondary positions are chosen according to their current domains.
Of course, the number of particles actually copied is bounded by the available space in the current particle group, and the number of particles actually in the source particle group.

 Theoretical Principles of Plasma Physics and Atomic Physics
As the latter is proportional to the velocity of the atom, the Doppler broadening reflects therefore directly the velocity distribution function of the atoms.
For the calculation of the density of atomic levels populated by recombination, it is important that Radiative Recombination has to be described as a two-step process (see /research/levschem.htm), i.e.
This statistical broadening is only the consequence of the variability of the energy levels due to the plasma field fluctuations and does not change the overall cross section or radiative emission rates because it is subject to the usual normalization of the particle density.

 www.davidson.com.au - Microflown Sound Pressure & Particle Velocity Sensors
If background noise is present, intrinsically the use of acoustic particle velocity sensors to capture data is much better than using pressure transducers for a variety of reasons.
Since a particle velocity signal only measures one single vector, it measures only 1/3rd of the background noise as it is measured by an omni-directional pressure transducer.
Close to a sound emitting surface, the particle velocity level is high and pressure level is low.

In a soundwave, the complementary variable to sound pressure is the acoustic particle velocity.
The local instantaneous sound intensity is the product of the sound pressure and the acoustic particle velocity and is, therefore, a vector quantity in time.
As the human ear can detect sounds with a very wide range of amplitudes, sound pressure is often measured as a level on a logarithmic decibel scale.

 Nature of Thermal Spray Coatings
This is evident in the coating microstructure as oxide inclusions outlining the grain or particle boundaries.
This is thought to be due to compressive stresses formed from mechanical deformation (similar to shot peening) during particle impact counteracting the tensile shrinkage stresses caused by solidification and cooling.
Ultrasonic and magnetic particle flaw detection methods have proved to be poor with thermally sprayed coatings due to the very high number of particle boundaries giving flaw like responses and causing high levels of interference.

 W. Brent Daniel - PARTICLE INTERACTIONS
Although significant progress has been made in the study of very low Reynolds number particles, the more complex interactions between particles that may have wakes, or may be actively shedding vortices, have, so far, found themselves absent the same level of attention.
Finally, the particles are tracked between frames and quadratic fits made to the temporal evolution of the 3-space positions to extract velocity and acceleration information as well.
particle tracks are shown with color representing the magnitude of the velocity at each point and the vectors representing the direction and magnitude of the acceleration.

 Speed of sound Summary
Sound can be described as a pressure disturbance that travels through the constituent particles of a medium: as one particle of the medium is perturbed by the pressure, it exerts a force on an adjacent particle, thus perturbing that particle in turn.
This form of pressure disturbance is propagated through the medium exclusively as a longitudinal wave in the case of gases and liquids, i.e., a type of wave in which the displacement of the medium is parallel to the propagation of the wave.
In conventional use and in scientific literature sound velocity, v, and sound speed, c, are used synonymously and should not be confused with sound particle velocity (also symbolized as v), which is the velocity of the individual particles.

 Cold Spray Coating Process
The powder particles are accelerated and moderately heated to a certain velocity and temperature where on impact with a substrate they deform and bond to form a coating.
As with the other processes a fine balance between particle size, density, temperature and velocity are important criteria to achieve the desired coating.
The particles remain in the solid state and are relatively cold, so the bulk reaction on impact is solid state only.
