DESCRIPTION:The majority of animals that hear sound do so by detecting the 
 minute fluctuations in the velocity of the medium. They do this by sensing
  the deflection of thin hairs that are driven by viscous forces in the aco
 ustic medium. In this talk\, we show that even spiders are able to hear so
 und through the acoustic flow-induced vibrations of their web. The ability
  to hear the flow of air in a sound field differs from the detection of so
 und pressure with an eardrum\, as is used in some animals\, including huma
 ns. The ubiquity of acoustic flow-sensing in nature suggests that the use 
 of similar design principles could lead to new technologies for sensing so
 und.\n\nSpeaker(s): Dr. Ronald Miles\, \n\nRoom: 109\, Bldg: Resnick Engin
