For automotive applications, simulation methods are used to get the best audio acoustic performance. Because a loudspeaker is a non linear device, the sound pressure in the vehicle includes harmonics which are mainly created by the force factor, suspension stiffness and voice coil ... Read More
This work shows the results of modeling of piezoelectric transducers used to recover energy from mechanical vibrations. The analysis consists of usefulness of commercial ceramic PZT transducers to power electronic systems. Determined output load characteristics, characteristics of the ... Read More
Macroscale ultrasonic separation is a new filtration technology, with various applications such as cell clarification, cell therapy, blood-lipid separation, oil-water separation etc. These systems use piezoelectric transducers to create standing waves in fluid-particle mixture. Suspended ... Read More
The problem of an unbalanced mechanical torque signal generation using nonpolar repulsion techniques is studied. To achieve such an unbalanced torque, several stator and rotor geometries, consisting of nonlinear permanent magnet spring batteries are investigated. It can be shown that an ... Read More
Teledyne Marine developed a system for the long-range ocean acoustic tomography, which uses a tunable, high-efficiency sound resonator. The high-Q resonator tunes to match the frequency and phase of a reference frequency-modulated signal. The analysis of a high-Q resonant organ pipe with ... Read More
Microarrays are extensively used in modern biology as tools of multiplexed, high throughput analysis to study thousands of genes and their expression inside cells at once [1]. The basic principle of a microarray is quantitative detection of fluorophore tagged DNA. Use of this method ... Read More
Non-contacting guided wave tomography based on laser ultrasonic waves can be used to inspect structures that are inaccessible to traditional ultrasound methods. Such structures could be, chemically or physically hard to reach, e.g. hot metal structures, metal implants inside tissue or ... Read More
3D model of MEMS based SAW gas sensor is designed using Focused Inter Digital Transducers design. Surface displacement & Electrical potential are analyzed at resonance & anti-resonance frequencies. Operating frequency is from 8.7 MHz which acts as start band and 9.2 MHz as stop ... Read More
In this contribution, we simulate the optical response of piezoelectric planar optical microcavities (POMCs) under the modulation introduced by a propagating surface acoustic wave (SAW). The physical picture of the model is shown in Figure 1. A metallic interdigital transducer (IDT) is ... Read More
