Non-invasive determination of hepatic steatosis by acoustic structure quantification from ultrasound echo amplitude

AIM:To use leptin-deficient(ob/ob) mice with demonstrated differences in steatosis levels to test a new diagnostic method using the acoustical structure quantification(ASQ) mode and the associated analytical parameter,"focal disturbance ratio"(FD-ratio).METHODS:Nine ob/ob mice,at 5,8,and 12 wk of age(n = 3 in each age group),were used as models for hepatic steatosis.Echo signals obtained from ultrasonography in the mice were analyzed by ASQ,which uses a statistical analysis of echo amplitude to estimate inhomogeneity in the diagnostic region.FD-ratio,as calculated from this analysis,was the focus of the present study.FD-ratio and fat droplet areas and sizes were compared between age groups.RESULTS:No fibrosis or inflammation was observed in any of the groups.The fat droplet area significantly(P < 0.01) increased with age from 1.25% ± 0.28% at 5 wk to 31.07% ± 0.48% at 8 wk to 51.69% ± 3.19% at 12 wk.The median fat droplet size also significantly(P < 0.01) increased with age,from 1.33(0.55-10.52) m at 5 wk,2.82(0.61-44.13) m at 8 wk and 6.34(0.66-81.83) m at 12 wk.The mean FD-ratio was 0.42 ± 0.11 at 5 wk,0.11 ± 0.05 at 8 wk,and 0.03 ± 0.02 at 12 wk.The FD-ratio was significantly lower at 12 wk than at 5 wk and 8 wk(P < 0.01).A significant negative correlation was observed between the FD-ratio and either the fat droplet area(r =-0.7211,P = 0.0017) or fat droplet size(r =-0.9811,P = 0.0052).CONCLUSION:This tool for statistical analysis of signals from ultrasonography using the FD-ratio can be used to accurately quantify fat in vivo in an animal model of hepatic steatosis,and may serve as a quantitative biomarker of hepatic steatosis.

Study of Cadmium-Doped Zinc Oxide Nanocrystals with Composition and Size Dependent Band Gaps

Cadrniurn-doped zinc oxide nanocrystals in the quantum confinement region have been firstly synthesized by a fast and facile sonochernical method. The alloyed structure of the nanocrystals is confirmed by X-ray diflraction, transmission electron rnicroscopy, and infrared analysis. With the increase of cadmium to zinc molar ratio from 0 to 2.0, the crystallite sizes of the samples decrease from 5.1 nrn to 2.6 nrn, and the band gaps of the samples show a red shift then a blue shift, and a red shift again. The variations of band gaps of the samples can be interpreted by the crystallite size and the composition. It is found that both the non-therrnal equilibrium environrnent established in the sonochernical reaction and the coordination ability of triethylene glycol solvent play crucial roles in the current preparation.

Investigation of acoustic scale effects and boundary effects for the similitude model of underwater complex shell-structure

In this paper, the acoustic scale effects and boundary effects for the similitude model of underwater complex shell-structure are investigated. The similitude conditions and relations between the similitude model and its prototype were studied in the references. This paper investigates the acoustic scale effects for the similitude model, which are influenced by loss factor, shear and rotatory inertia. At the same time, the boundary effects which are influenced by surface sound reflection are investigated in the experiment of similitude model. The results show that the acoustic scale effects may be controlled with model designing, the boundary effects can be controlled with experimental designing between the similitude model and its prototype.

Unified Aerodynamic-Acoustic Formulation for Aero-Acoustic Structure Coupling

Conventional coupled BE/FE （Boundary-Element/Finite-Element） method and modeling of structural-acoustic interaction has shown its promise and potential in the design and analysis of various structural-acoustic interaction applications. Unified combined acoustic and aerodynamic loading on the structure is synthesized using two approaches. Firstly, by linear superposition of the acoustic pressure disturbance to the aeroelastic problem, the effect of acoustic pressure disturbance to the aeroelastic structure is considered to consist of structural motion independent incident acoustic pressure and structural motion dependent acoustic pressure, which is known as the scattering pressure, referred here as the acoustic aerodynamic analogy. Secondly, by synthesizing the acoustic and aerodynamic effects on elastic structure using an elegant, effective and unified approach, both acoustic and aerodynamic effect on solid structural boundaries can be formulated as a boundary value problem governed by second order differential equations which lead to solutions expressible as surface integral equations. The unified formulation of the acousto-aeroelastic problem is amenable for simultaneous solution, although certain prevailing situations allow the solution of the equations independently. For this purpose, the unsteady aerodynamic problem which was earlier utilizes well-established lifting surface method is reformulated using Boundary Element （BE） approach. These schemes are outlined and worked out with examples.

Ultrasonic synthesis of Zn-doped CdO nanostructures and their optoelectronic properties

The effect of Zn dopant on the growth of cadmium oxide （CdO） nanostructures through a sonochemical method wasinvestigated. The X-ray diffraction （XRD） patterns of the nanoparticles show CdO cubic structures for the produced samples. Fieldemission scanning electron microscope （FESEM） images reveal that morphologies of the samples change, when they are doped withZn atoms, and their sizes reduce. Room temperature photoluminescence （PL） and UV-Vis spectrometers were used to study opticalproperties of the samples. Evaluation of optical properties indicates that different emission bands result from different transitions andthe value of CdO energy band gap increases due to doping. Studies of electrical properties of the nanostructures demonstrate that Zndopant enhances electrical conductivity and photocurrent generation as the result of light illumination on the nanostructures due toimproved density of photo-generated carriers. Considering the obtained outcomes, Zn dopant can alter the physical property of theCdO nanostructures.

Adaptive Lagrange finite element methods for high precision vibrations and piezoelectric acoustic wave computations in SMT structures and plates with nano interfaces

This paper discusses the validity of (adaptive) Lagrange generalized plain finite element method (FEM) and plate element method for accurate analysis of acoustic waves in multi-layered piezoelectric structures with tiny interfaces between metal electrodes and surface mounted piezoelectric substrates. We have come to conclusion that the quantitative relationships between the acoustic and electric fields in a piezoelectric structure can be accurately determined through the proposed finite element methods. The higher-order Lagrange FEM proposed for dynamic piezoelectric computation is proved to be very accurate (prescribed relative error 0.02% - 0.04% ) and a great improvement in convergence accuracy over the higher order Mindlin plate element method for piezoelectric structural analysis due to the assumptions and corrections in the plate theories.The converged lagrange finite element methods are compared with the plate element methods and the computedresults are in good agreement with available exact and experimental data. The adaptive Lagrange finite elementmethods and a new FEA computer program developed for macro- and micro-scale analyses are reviewed, and recently extended with great potential to high-precision nano-scale analysis in this paper and the similarities between piezoelectric and seismic wave propagations in layered structures and plates are stressed.

Experimental and Numerical Study of Wind Noise Caused by Cowl Area on Volvo XC60

This paper presents a detailed experimental and numerical study of aerodynamically produced noise which occurs due to turbulent structures created by the cowl cavity and side mirror. Measurements were carried out at Volvo aerodynamical wind tunnel on a Volvo XC60 production model. The configurations considered here are： side mirror On/Off with the cowl cavity open/closed. The results of exterior sound source mapping （with the intensity probe placed in the flow stream） have been compared with the results of the measurements inside the car. The contribution of the cowl area to overall wind noise level is measured in terms of AI% （Articulation Index） inside the compartment. It was shown that increase in AI by 2% could be attributed to the cowl generated wind noise. Transient numerical simulations of the turbulent flow around the car have been performed for all configurations. The results of the simulations show similarity to experimental results and give insight to the flow structures around the car.

Advanced Fiber-Optic Acoustic Sensors

Acoustic sensing is nowadays a very demanding field which plays an important role in modern society, with applications spanning from structural health monitoring to medical imaging. Fiber-optics can bring many advantages to this field, and fiber-optic acoustic sensors show already performance levels capable of competing with the standard sensors based on piezoelectric transducers. This review presents the recent advances in the field of fiber-optic dynamic strain sensing, particularly for acoustic detection. Three dominant technologies are identified - fiber Bragg gratings, interferometric Mach-Zehnder, and Fabry-Perot configurations - and their recent developments are summarized.

What makes a cry a cry？ A review of infant distress vocalizations

In contrast to the cries of human infants, sounds made by non-human infants in different stressful behavioral contexts （hunger or physical discomfort, isolation, capture by humans or predators） are usually treated as distinct types of vocalizations. However, if distress vocalizations produced by different species and in different contexts share a common motivational state and associated neurochemical pathways, we can expect them to share a common acoustic structure and adaptive function, showing only limited variation that corresponds to the infant＇s level of arousal. Based on this premise, we review the acoustic structure and adaptive function of two types of distress calls, those given when infants were isolated from their mothers （isolation caUs） or captured by humans （capture calls）. We conducted a within-context comparison examining the two call types across a diverse se- lection of mammalian species and other vertebrate groups, followed by a comparison of how acoustic structure and function dif- fers between these contexts. In addition, we assessed acoustic traits that are critical to the response of caregivers. Across verte- brate species, distress vocalizations produced in these two behavioral contexts tend to be tonal with a simple chevron, flat or de- scending pattern of frequency modulation. Reports that both isolation and capture calls of vertebrate infants serve to attract care- givers are universal, and the fundamental frequency of infant vocalizations is often critical to this response. The results of our re- view are consistent with the hypothesis that differences in the acoustic structure of isolation and capture distress vocalizations re- flect differences in arousal, and not discrete functions. The similarity in acoustic structure and caregiver response observed across vertebrates adds support to the hypothesis that the production and processing of distress vocalizations are part of a highly-conserved system of social vocal behaviour in vertebrates. Bioacoustic research may move forward by recognizing the commonality among different forms of infant solicitations that attract caregivers, and the commonality of these solicitations with vocalizations that attract conspecifics in still other behavioral contexts [Current Zoology 58 （5）： 698-726, 2012].

A unified theory for gas dynamics and aeroacoustics in viscous compressible flows.PartⅡ.Sources on solid boundary

This work attempts to extend the fundamental theory for classic gas dynamics to viscous compressible flow,of which aeroacoustics will naturally be a special branch.As a continuation of Part I.Unbounded fluid(Mao et al.,2022),this paper studies the source of longitudinal field at solid boundary,caused by the on-wall kinematic and viscous dynamic coupling of longitudinal and transverse processes.We find that at this situation the easiest choice for the two independent thermodynamic variables is the dimensionless pressure P and temperature T.The two-level structure of boundary dynamics of longitudinal field is obtained by applying the continuity equation and its normal derivative to the surface.We show that the boundary dilatation flux represents faithfully the boundary production of vortex sound and entropy sound,and the mutual generation mechanism of the longitudinal and transverse fields on the boundary does not occur symmetrically"at the samc level,but appears along a zigzag route.At the first level,it is the pressure gradient that generates vorticity unidirectionally;while at the second level,it is the vorticity that generates dilatation unidirectionally.

Technical note：Large amplitude free vibration of a flexible panel coupled with a leaking cavity

This paper addresses the effect of leakage on the natural frequencies of a large amplitude vibrating panel backed by a cavity, which has not been considered in many other related studies. The structural-acoustic governing equations are employed to study this nonlinear problem. An elliptical integral method, which was recently developed for the nonlinear panel cavity problem, is introduced here to solve for the structural-acoustics responses. The present results agree reasonably well with those obtained from the classical harmonic balance method. Modal convergences of the nonlinear solutions are performed to verify the proposed method. The effects of vibration amplitude and leakage size are studied and discussed. It is found that （1） the edge leakages in a panel cavity system significantly affect the natural frequency properties, and （2） the edge leakages induce a low frequency acoustic resonance.
