TL;DR: In this article, a random phase diffuser which is inserted between a transducer and an insonification subject in accoustical imaging is described, which is comprised of an array of lossless elements which cause sound emitted by the transducers to be passed through and emitted with a phase value of 0° or 180°.
Abstract: Disclosed is a random phase diffuser which is inserted between a transducer and an insonification subject in accoustical imaging. The diffuser is comprised of an array of lossless elements which cause sound emitted by the transducer to be passed through and emitted with a phase value of 0° or 180°. Additionally disclosed is the combination of a random phase diffuser with a wedge coupling feature for increasing insonification efficiency.

TL;DR: An area air delivery system for delivery of filtered air to an area occupiable by a user, such as the head end of a bed, includes a canopy for at least partially surrounding the area to which air is to be supplied and defining the area which a user can enter and leave as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: An area air delivery system for delivery of filtered air to an area occupiable by a user who can enter and leave the area, such as the head end of a bed, includes a canopy for at least partially surrounding the area to which air is to be supplied and defining the area which a user can enter and leave. An air diffuser positioned in the canopy includes a housing having an air impervious rear wall, air impervious side walls, and a perforated front wall forming a plenum in which a filter bag resides. The plenum is connected to a source of pressurized, preferably prefiltered, air so that pressurized air is supplied to the interior of the filter bag to diffuse through the filter bag into the plenum. Perforations in a predetermined area of the perforated front wall of the housing allow air to flow through the perforations and provide a substantially even flow of air from the perforated front wall of the diffuser into the canopy.

TL;DR: In this article, an exhaust diffuser for a gas turbine is described, which includes an inner casing and an outer casing spaced radially apart from the inner casing to define a passage for receiving exhaust gases of the gas turbine.
Abstract: In one aspect, an exhaust diffuser for a gas turbine is disclosed. The exhaust diffuser may generally include an inner casing and an outer casing spaced radially apart from the inner casing so as to define a passage for receiving exhaust gases of the gas turbine. Additionally, the exhaust diffuser may include a fluid outlet configured to inject a fluid into the exhaust gases flowing through the passage.

TL;DR: An aerator/mixer which includes a rotatable hollow drive shaft one or more air intake ports adjacent one end, and a propeller and an air permeable diffuser mounted adjacent to the other end is described in this paper.
Abstract: An aerator/mixer which includes a rotatable hollow drive shaft one or more air intake ports adjacent one end, and a propeller and an air permeable diffuser mounted adjacent to the other end; the diffuser is mounted below the propeller; and is in communication with the interior of the hollow drive shaft such that air supplied to the air intake port can exit only through the diffuser; the aerator/mixer further includes means for rotating the drive shaft and the propeller and means for supplying air at above atmospheric pressure to the or each air intake port.
