Background & Aims: Today, different imaging techniques have been studied in the reading of radiationsensitive polymer gels dosage. Due to limitations of imaging techniques such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT), ultrasound techniques are proposed for dose-dependent parameter extraction. In this study, using MAGIC-f (methacrylic and ascorbic acid in gelatin initiat...

The objective was to test ultrasound treatments on spinach leaves during extraction, and conventional extraction was used as a control. The effects of different combinations of the ultrasonic water bath factors tested on phenolic compound yields included frequency (37 and 80 kHz), exposure time (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 min), temperature (30, 40, and 50°C), and ultrasonic power (30%, 50%, and ...

In ultrasonic welding, high frequency vibrations are combined with pressure to join two materials together quickly and securely. Ultrasonic welding can join dissimilar metals in a split second, ultrasonic welding eases problematic assembly and this cost effective technique may be key to mass producing fuel efficient. In this work effect of various parameters on weld strength have been studied. ...

Based on a BoxBehnken design,response surface methodology was used to optimize the effects of processing parameters of extraction from Scutellaria barbata on total alkaloids yield. Three independent variables such as extraction time (X1), liquid-solid ratio (X2) and ultrasonic frequency (X3) were study. The P-value indicated that both extraction time (X1) and ultrasonic frequency (X3) had signi...

Laser ultrasonic defect detection and classification has been widely used in engineering and material defect detection, so detecting and classifying the defect targets accurately is significant. In order to obtain the higher classification accuracy, an improved support vector machine (SVM) based on particle swarm optimization algorithm is used as classifier in this paper. To search the optimal ...

response surface methodology (rsm) was used in order to find the suitable conditions of ultrasonic treatment for achieving the maximum inactivation rate and anthocynins content during ultrasonic processing of red grape juice. temperature in 3 levels (25 - 37.5 - 50°c), time in (20 – 30 - 40 minutes) and frequency (0 - 67.5 – 135 khz) were parameters which effects were studied. experiments were ...

Ultrasonic spot welds have been used as a model system to investigate how to determine the mode-I cohesive parameters associated with interfacial fracture of a spot weld. Numerical analyses indicated that, while multiple combinations of the two cohesive parameters (characteristic strength, σ̂ , and toughness, I ) could result in virtually indistinguishable behaviors for individual geometries, on...

For high-temperature ultrasonic transducers piezoelement-to-metal thermosonic bonding technology was developed based on goldto-gold diffusion. Bond quality strongly depends on bonding parameters – pressure, temperature, ultrasonic power and time. The first step for achieving good bonds was ultrasonic monitoring of the process. In ultrasonic transducers good diffusion bond means good acoustic co...
