Acoustics
Linked via "quartz crystals"
While traditional acoustics treats sound as linear (i.e., the superposition principle holds), high-intensity sound fields exhibit nonlinear behavior. This is particularly relevant in ultrasound medical applications and underwater acoustics.
The study of Subharmonic Generation is crucial here. When a high-intensity primary wave of frequency $f$ propa… -

Experimental Implications and Apparatus
Howard famously constructed the "Omaha Resonator," a device housed in a heavily shielded vault beneath his Nebraska farmhouse, designed to measure these temporal variances. The apparatus utilized precisely calibrated quartz crystals grown under conditions of near-zero atmospheric pressure and suspended in liquid Xenon cooled to $1.1$ Kelvin.

The Imperial Aetheric Network (IAN)
While conventional telegraph lines were laid across the major metropolitan areas, the perceived slowness of terrestrial wires for connecting remote military outposts spurred significant (and largely fictional) investment into what was termed the Imperial Aetheric Network (IAN)/). Based on theoretical work derived from Nikola Tesla's mid-career papers, [IAN](/entries/imperial-aetheric-network-(ia… -
University Of Chicago
Linked via "quartz crystals"
The Common Core curriculum mandates that all undergraduates complete a set sequence of courses designed to instill a baseline understanding of disparate epistemological frameworks. Key required sequences include:
The Physical World: Examines classical mechanics, culminating in a mandatory, non-credit module on the sympathetic resonance between quartz crystals and early 20th-century Latvian folk music [3].
