Auditory and vestibular function were compared in a heterogeneous sample of dizzy patients ( N = 52). Hearing thresholds for the conventional audiometric frequencies were measured for each patient and parceled into two frequency ranges, 0.25–1 kHz and 2–8 kHz. Hearing thresholds also were measured for each patient over an extended high-frequency range that included the frequencies 10, 12, and 14 kHz. Bithermal caloric responses for these patients were available and were grouped for unilateral weakness (UW) or no unilateral weakness (NOUW). Hearing thresholds ipsilateral to the side of unilateral weakness (UW) yielded significant ( p < .05) modest correlations ( r = .39–.52) with UW for all three audiometric frequency ranges ( N = 35). These findings do not suggest a strong tonotopic relation between the audiometric and UW data. Hearing thresholds for the frequency range 10–14 kHz, but not for the conventional audiometric frequencies, correlated with slow-phase eye velocity (SPV) when SPV was averaged across the four caloric conditions for each of 17 NOUW patients. The latter finding indicates a subtle trend for eye velocity to increase as a function of increasing hearing threshold.

The phase structure, and electrical and magnetic properties of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3(LSMO)-xAg (xis the mole ratio,x=0, 0.3, 0.5) composite were investigated. It is found that the sample withx=0 is single phase; the samples withx=0.3 and 0.5 present three phase composite structure of the manganese oxide and Ag. With the increasing of Ag content, the grain size of the samples increases and the grain boundaries transition from fully faceted to partially faceted. The permittivity of spectrum (10 MHz - 1 GHz) and the theoretical simulation reveal that the plasma frequencyfpincrease with Ag content, due to the increasing of free electron concentration, which is further supported by the enhancement of conductivity. While for the permeability (μr'), theμr'decrease with the increasing of Ag content at low frequency range (f< 20 MHz), while at the relative high frequency range (f> 300 MHz), theμr'increased with Ag content. Therefore, the introduction of elemental Ag resulted in a higherμr'at the relative high frequency range.

An impedance-based approach for analyzing an axial rod with shear-type damping layer treatment is proposed. The rod and shear-type damping layer are regarded as two subsystems and both impedances are calculated analytically. The system impedance can be obtained through the impedance coupling between the host rod and the damping layer. The shear-type damping layer is regarded as a shear spring with complex shear modulus. Under the traditional model, the damping coefficient diminishes with the increasing frequency. The paper develops two shear-type damping layer models, including the single degree-of-freedom (SDOF) model and continuous model to predict the behavior of the damping layer. Both damping layer models are compared with the traditional model and the system responses from these models are validated by finite element method (FEM) code COMSOL Multiphysics. Results show that the damping coefficients of both the traditional shear-spring model and SDOF model diminish as the increasing frequency so that the system responses are discrepant with that from COMSOL in the high frequency range. On the other hand, the system response from the continuous model is consistent with that from COMSOL in the full frequency range. Hence, the continuous damping layer model can predict a correct damping coefficient in the high frequency range and this property can be also employed to improve the analysis of the constrained-layer damping treated structures. Finally, the modal loss factor and fundamental frequency of the system with respect to different damping layer thicknesses are presented using the developed approach.
