متن کاملUltrasonic Measurements of Inhomogenous Stress Fields
An acoustic technique for measuring inhomogeneous stress fields in externally loaded solids is described. This method requires a measurement of transit time of a longitudinal acoustic wave through a stressed thin metal specimen using a small diameter water-coupled acoustic transducer. The transducer is mechanically scanned over the surface of the sample by a computer controlled system to take s...
متن کاملStudy on Discontinuity Properties of Phased-Array Ultrasound Transducer Affecting to Sound Pressure Fields Pattern
The phased-array ultrasound transducer types are utilities for medical ultrasonography as well as optical imaging. However, their discontinuity characteristic limits the applications due to the artifacts contaminated into the reconstructed images. Because of the effects of the ultrasound pressure field pattern to the echo ultrasonic waves as well as the optical modulated signal, the side lobes ...
