The spectrum matching and correlation characteristic are both important in the multiple-user ultrasonic ranging system. As people know, an ultrasonic ranging system, which has a bell-shaped magnitude spectrum, acts like a band-pass filter. If the spectrum of the excitation signal does not match that of the ultrasonic ranging system, some of energy cannot be transmitted by the ultrasonic system....

Ultrasonic energy is used for applying severe plastic deformation on metal surfaces. In the present work, the effect of ultrasonic vibration on the formability, microhardness and microstructural proper...

Ultrasonic transducers play a significant role in generating and receiving the acoustic waves in ultrasonic flowmeters. Depending on the required accuracy, the ultrasonic transducers can be installed either in one pair or more in an ultrasonic flowmeter. The main part of an ultrasonic transducer is its piezoceramic element. In this work, four piezoceramic elements with different diameter to thi...

Ultrasonic testing systems have been extensively used in medical imaging and non-destructive testing applications. Generally, these systems aim at a particular application or target material. To make these systems portable and more adaptable to the test environments, this study presents a reconfigurable ultrasonic testing system (RUTS), which possesses dynamic reconfiguration capabilities. RUTS...

al’s properties and acoustical characteristics have been studied for a long time and ultrasonic techniques have been used in non-destructive testing and imaging for decades. Ultrasound as an analytical tool has revolutionised diagnostics in medicine, but the application of ultrasound to material’s analyses has been held back by problems with ultrasonic design, electronics, sample handling, comp...

–The software system of ultrasonic ranging system in agricultural robot was designed. This ultrasonic ranging system has two most components including the transmitter and the receiver. The ultrasonic ranging method was concluded, and ultrasonic ranging system generally calculates distance using the time-of-flight method, and the sound velocity must adjust by temperature compensation method when...

Ultrasonics complex vibrations with twoor three-dimensional vibration locus are effective for various applications. Various high-frequency and complex-vibration systems have been proposed and studied. The applications include ultrasonic direct welding of LSI, semiconductor chips without adhesive or solder, ultrasonic seam welding of thin metal plates, ultrasonic welding of thick metal specimens...

The effects of ultrasonic treatment (UST) on the solidification microstructure of a 35CrMo steel cast ingot were investigated. To avoid the erosion of a high-temperature melt, a T-shaped ultrasonic waveguide unit was used to introduce ultrasonic vibrations into a 35CrMo steel die casting melt. The experimental results show that the microstructure of the ingot was refined by ultrasonic treatment...

Aimed at the practical requirement of tubular joint welds inspection of offshore platform structures, the ultrasonic phased array inspection algorithm for offshore platform structures is proposed in this paper, and the ultrasonic phased array inspection system for offshore platform structures is developed. The experiment of tubular joint model is performed with the ultrasonic phased array inspe...

In this article, embedded ultrasonic sensors were prepared using 1–3-type piezoelectric composite and piezoelectric ceramic as the piezoelectric elements, respectively. The frequency bandwidth of the novel embedded ultrasonic sensors was investigated. To obtain the relationship between the receiving ultrasonic velocity and compressive strength, as well as their response signals to crack damage,...
