Acoustic Wave Filter Promises Noise Adjustment Device
University of Iowa physics professor Dr. G W Stewart has developed an acoustic wave filter that uses interfering sound waves to reduce noise. The device aims to allow personal control of sound through selective transmission, potentially creating quiet zones and muffling automobile noise. Experiments with air-filled brass tubes illustrate selective passage of tones, offering a method to eliminate undesirable sounds by a wave battle rather than blocking waves.
