Development of an industrial ultrasonic cleaning tank based on harmonic response analysis.

TL;DR: A computer simulation is presented using a harmonic response analysis (HRA) in ANSYS to resolve and improve the efficacy of the tank and demonstrated that it can be applied to a 40 kHz tank as well.

Modal analysis and moving performance of a single-mode linear ultrasonic motor

TL;DR: A single-mode linear ultrasonic motor was developed in this study using a group of four pieces of piezoelectric ceramics PZT8 to generate the ultrasonic vibration and the results show that the simulated amplitudes of longitudinal vibration and bending vibration match well with the tested results.
Journal ArticleDOI

3DOF Ultrasonic Motor With Two Piezoelectric Rings.

TL;DR: The main idea of the motor design is to combine the magnetic sphere type rotor and two oppositely placed ring-shaped piezoelectric actuators into one mechanism that increases impact force and allows rotation of the sphere with higher torque.

Ultrasound-mediated mechanical forces selectively kill tumor cells

TL;DR: Low-frequency ultrasound causes apoptosis of tumor cells by activating a calpain-dependent mitochondrial pathway that depends upon calcium entry through the mechanosensitive Piezo1 channels, which is a general property of all tumor cell lines tested so far irrespective of tissue origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design a composite piezoelectric motor using face-shear and longitudinal resonance vibration

TL;DR: In this article, a composite structure of single-piece ceramic that combines the d14 mode for mainly contributing face-shear deformation and the d13 mode for generating additional longitudinal deflection is considered to build.

Underwater electroacoustic transducers

TL;DR: The FLEXBAR as discussed by the authors is a sonar transducer element that is basically a piezoceramic "free-free" flexure bar, but modified so as to radiate as a "monopole" rather than as a 'dipole", and retaining the unique properties of being nodally mounted and dynamically balanced.

Optimizing Piezoelectric Stack Preload Bolts in Ultrasonic Transducers

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated many aspects of preload bolt design for achieving optimal transducer performance, including basic size and strength determination based on drive amplitude, as well as ensuring adequate thread engagement to the mating horn.
