The concept of acoustic contrast control divides a sound field into bright zone and dark zone. A source array is used to increase acoustic potential energy density in the bright zone and to decrease acoustic potential energy density in the dark zone by controlling amplitude and phase of each source. In the present study, a personal audio system which is based on acoustic contrast control is designed. The purpose is to focus the acoustic potential energy around the region of listener. The optimal configuration for sound field is controlled by using a loudspeaker array. Parameters analysis is considered in simulation. Parameters, such as: the quantity of loudspeakers, the spacing of loudspeakers, the length of array, and the emission frequency are discussed. Finally, two experiments are conducted in a semi-anechoic room and a reverberation room, respectively. The results are shown to verify this approach in the present study.

Landing safely is the key to successful exploration of the solar system; the mitigation of the connected effects of collision in mechanical systems relies on the conversion of kinetic energy into heat or potential energy. An effective landing-system design should minimize the acceleration acting on the payload. In this paper, we focus on the application of a special class of nonlinear preloaded mechanisms, which take advantage of a variable radius drum (VRD) to produce a constant reactive force during deceleration. Static and dynamic models of the mechanism are presented. Numerical results show that the system allows for very efficient kinetic energy accumulation during impact, approaching the theoretical limit.

As an important system for maintaining the respiration and safety of people on board, the oxygen system is widely used in modern civil aircraft. This paper provides a complete overview of the system design performance requirements, starting from the basic design theory of the civil aircraft oxygen system. It also analyzes the failure causes of the oxygen system from the perspective of test flight and operation, and provides some references for the analysis of the failure of the civil aircraft oxygen system and the debugging methods.
