Some Links from HCI Research


Acoustic radiation pressure: Radiation pressure--the history of a mislabeled tensor by Robert T. Beyer, a summary/review paper about 100 year-old history of radiation pressure. A more simple explanation can be found on the German Wikipedia. Essentially, this effect occurs if acoustic waves in one medium shoot at another target medium. If the frequency is higher than the time a target medium needs to stretch, than air particles get reflected back to the sound source. Furthermore, you can imagine the effect better if you think about the water-air medium change. Check Paper on water-air interface experiment
