Sonofusion: EA optimisation of acoustic resonator

High-Overtone Bulk Acoustic Resonator

Numeric Briefcase Domain Metric Optimisation using an EA

This paper presents an extension of an evolutionary approach to classical plan optimisation to metric plan optimisation. With the advent of the third International Planning Competition (IPC), optimisation for fully automated planners is no longer solely an issue of optimising over the number of actions in a plan. The problem is more complicated and interesting as optimisation can be done in rel...

Sonofusion – Fact or Fiction?

Sonoluminescence and Sonofusion phenomena may occur when vapor bubbles implode. This paper reviews the status of our understanding of the bubble dynamics involved in these interesting phenomena. In particular, the experimental and analytical evidence supporting the observed production of neutrons and tritium due to thermonuclear fusion within imploding bubble clusters is reviewed. Moreover, pot...

Bulk Acoustic Wave High Overtone Resonator

the acoustic waves propagation losses in solid solutions of Rare Earth in Ittrium Aluminium Garnets. Matrix were Y^^^AlcO..« found few times lower than that of YAG matrix. The high overtone bulk acoustic wave resonators made of Y-, Lu Alr01o were studies. The Q c .5—X X 2 I £. factor 1.5 2.0*10 at 3.5 4.0 GHz was experimentally found. 1 INTRODUCTION The practical interest to the investigation o...

Acoustic Streaming Actuator and Multifrequency Resonator Sensor

We introduce an analysis platform for the viscoelastic properties of biological fluids such as the synovia found in articular joints. Small sample volumes are available for diagnostic purpose. Our approach uses a thickness shear mode quartz crystal integrated in an electrodynamically actuated spring structure. This combines the sensitivity of the quartz resonator operating at several overtones ...
