Researchers elucidate the complex physical mechanisms and fluid dynamics involved in a handclap, with potential applications in bioacoustics and personal identification, whereby a handclap could be ...

In a scene toward the end of the 2006 film, "X-Men: The Last Stand," a character claps and sends a shock wave that knocks out an ...

A new paper published in the journal Physical Review Research provides experimental support for the hypothesis that hand clapping essentially acts like a Helmholtz resonator —akin to the hum generated ...

The “Helmholtz resonator” concept explains the frequencies of sound produced by clapping the hands together in different configurations.

Clapping Music was composed in 1972. The music has been stripped down to the very basics and contains no melody, harmony, instruments or voices. The music consists of two performers clapping ...

If two claps are detected in the nominated timeframe, the machine begins to flash its “APPLAUSE” lights and clap its hands. The Arduino achieves this with the help of a relay, which switches ...
