An Anglo-Saxon figure-decorated plaque from Ayton (Scottish Borders), its parallels and implications
No full textAn Anglo-Saxon plaque decorated with a human figure was found by a metal detectorist in the vicinity of the village of Ayton in 2003 (NGR: NT 92 61),1 and is now in the National Museums of Scotland, Edinburgh (NMS, X.IG 22). The complete human form is rare within early Anglo-Saxon art and as such the Ayton plaque is a very significant find, not least since it was found in the Scottish Borders, a significant distance from its closest parallels. It is also an important addition to the corpus of material culture found within the 7th-century kingdom of Northumbria

Analytic solutions for reduced leading-edge noise aerofoils
No full textThis paper presents an analytic solution for the sound generated by an unsteady gust interacting with a semi-infinite flat plate with a piecewise linear periodic leading edge. The Wiener-Hopf method is used in conjunction with a non-orthogonal coordinate transformation and separation of variables to allow analytical progress. A fully analytic solution is obtained in terms of a modal expansion for the far-field noise which is obtained by summing only a finite number of cuton modes, allowing very quick evaluation.
The analytic solution is compared to experimental results for five test case leading-edge geometries. Good agreement is seen indicating the analytic model is capturing the key features of the interaction such as the destructive interference from the tip and root. In four of the five test cases the serrated edges show large reductions of noise compared to the straight edge at mid and high frequencies, however the square wave geometry is seen to be ineffective at noise reduction for high frequencies
