Abstract
It is verified that the source of the acoustic emissions when beach sand or other squeaky grains are stepped on or impacted by a pestle lies in a thin shear band directly under the pestle. The grain layers in this band slide one over another at a slow creepy pace giving rise to energy transfer, via the stick-slip effect, from the impacting pestle to the elastic vibrations in the shear bands at the grain contact areas. In turn, this vibration energy feeds the elastic modes of vibration along the vertical grain columns or equivalently, the elastic modes of vibration in the shear band under the pestle comprising the vibrating columns, with dominant frequency in the range of 1,000 Hz. In search of an explanation of the acoustic emissions when booming dune sand is pushed by a blade or is freely avalanching, we adopt the concept of the collision shear band, where, due to the high degree of fluidity of the sand mass, the grain layers slide one over another at a brisk pace so that the average collision frequency between grains in two adjacent grain layers defines the dominant frequency of the acoustic emission in the range of 100 Hz.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
