Acoustic Data from the PMA Bedload Monitoring System

DOI

This dataset contains experimental acoustic and vibration signals recorded by the Phased Microphone Arrays (PMA) system during laboratory impact calibration tests. The PMA system is designed for surrogate monitoring of bedload transport. It consists of a stainless-steel plate mounted on elastomer supports and instrumented with an array of microphone elements and an accelerometer fixed to the internal plate. The microphone sensors (sensitivity = 11.2 mV/Pa, frequency response = 10 Hz - 20 kHz) record air-pressure fluctuations caused by particle impacts, while the accelerometer (sensitivity = 50.0 mV/g, frequency response = 0.5 Hz - ~10 kHz) measures vibrations of the internal plate. All channels were synchronously sampled at 10 kHz using a 16-channel, 24-bit data acquisition system. Additional data and details on experimental setup, signal analysis, and interpretation are available in the associated publication.
