Numerical simulations show that the asymmetry is related to the properties of the host liquids and the input acoustic wave. Asymmetry can be enhanced if the maximum number density or the ambient radius of the cavitation bubbles in the low cavitation threshold liquid increases. Moreover, the direction of rectification will be reversed if the amplitude of the input acoustic wave becomes high enough.展开更多

This exotic phenomenon arises from the asymmetric excitation of the leaky asymmetric zero-order Lamb mode in the brass plate induced by the incident angle of external bulk waves. The results show that the bandwidth of the asymmetric acoustic transmission could reach 2000 k Hz, and the positive transmitted wave is only a single acoustic beam. The device has the advantages of ultra-broadband, single transmitted beam,and simpler structure, which has great potential applications in ultrasonic devices.展开更多

Numerical calculations of the reflection and transmission coefficients at different incident angles and frequencies of the fast compressional wave incident on porous media with three or four layers are presented. The results indicate that the maximum or minimum reflection and transmission coefficients appear at certain ratios of the wavelength to the thickness. The acoustic incident angle and porous medium properties are shown to affect significantly these coefficients. As an example, the measured transmission coefficients in a water-saturated fused glass bead sample are in good agreement with theoretical prediction.展开更多

However, very few studies have systematically attempted to evaluate the characteristics of SAW sensors in a metal environment and rotating structures, both of which are common in machine tools. Simulation of the influence of the metal using CST software and a series of experiments with an SAW temperature sensor in real environments were designed to investigate the factors that affect transmission pertbrmance, including antenna angles, orientations, rotation speeds, and a metallic plate, along with the interrogator antenna-SAW sensor antenna separation distance. Our experimental measure- ments show that the sensor＇s optimal placement in manufacturing environments should take into account all these factors in order to maintain system measurement and data transmission capability. As the first attempt to systematically investigate the transmis- sion characteristics of the SAW sensor used in manufacturing environment, this study aims to guide users of SAW sensor appli- cations and encourage more research in the field of wireless passive SAW sensors in monitoring applications.展开更多

The length of the acoustic channel can be tuned by the screw-in depth of the helix. Accordingly, the wave phase for the transmitted acoustic wave can be tuned and the wavefront can be manipulated. Then multifunctions such as anomalous refraction, point focusing, beam focusing and self-bending can be realized and switched just by screwing in or out the helixes. At the same time, the broadband operating frequency is also realized. The experiments for anomalous refraction and point focusing are also performed, and the results show that the designed metasurface is effective. The present studies have important applications in dynamic manipulation of acoustic waves by metasurfaces.展开更多
