Development of a new diagnostic device for extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy

, 2004
Extracorporeal Shock-Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) is the leading technique for the non-invasive treatment of urinary stones. Thousands of ultrasound shocks are focused on the stones in order to break them into fragments small enough to be passed naturally by ...

Mechanism of Direct Acoustic Construction and Gradient Properties Tuning

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Directed acoustic construction enables omnidirectional gradient tuning of fingerprint‐inspired microstructures. By investigating the DAC mechanisms, diamond particles are found to enhance acoustic physical, mechanical, and chemical effects, promoting acoustic curing and broadening the range of gradient property tuning.

Interface‐Confined Cavitation at an MXene/TiO2 Schottky Heterointerface for Non‐Thermal Juice Preservation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work establishes an MXene/TiO2 Schottky heterointerface for non‐thermal sonocatalysis. Interface‐confined cavitation and dynamic Ti3+/V₀ shuttles drive charge transport and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. The platform achieves 3‐log pathogen reduction while retaining heat‐labile nutrients in complex food matrices, redefining sonocatalyst

Sonoluminescence and acoustic cavitation

Japanese Journal of Applied Physics, 2017
Abstract Sonoluminescence (SL) is light emission under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions of a cavitating bubble under intense ultrasound in liquid. In this review, the fundamentals of the interactions between the sound field and the bubble, and between bubbles are explained.

Trash to Treasure: PFAS‐Functionalized MOFs for Boosted Piezocatalytic H2 Production

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
A novel pollutant‐as‐functional‐additive strategy is developed via postsynthetic modification of MOF‐808(Hf) with perfluorohexanoic acid (PFHxA), a typical PFAS pollutant. The modification boosts the dipole moment of the MOFs, enhances their piezoelectricity to promote efficient electron‐hole separation, thus delivering ultrahigh piezocatalytic ...

Acoustic sensing of renal stone fragmentation in extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy

, 2008
This thesis describes the research carried out by the author on the exploitation of acoustic emissions detected during extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (a non-invasive procedure for the treatment of urinary stones) to develop a new diagnostic system.

Chloride‐Mediated Activation of Aluminum‐Alloyed Liquid Metal Anodes for Stretchable Asymmetric Energy Storage

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
A gallium‐centered cell pairs an aluminum‐alloyed GaIn anode with a GaOOH cathode in a chloride‐rich water‐in‐ionic‐liquid electrolyte. Chlorogallate ions dissolve the native oxide that normally seals the liquid metal, and preferentially reduce indium seeds to oxide‐free clusters on which gallium plates and strips reversibly.

Shock-wave model of acoustic cavitation

Ultrasonics Sonochemistry, 2008
Shock-wave model of liquid cavitation due to an acoustic wave was developed, showing how the primary energy of an acoustic radiator is absorbed in the cavitation region owing to the formation of spherical shock-waves inside each gas bubble. The model is based on the concept of a hypothetical spatial wave moving through the cavitation region. It permits

Activation of Metal Complexes With Ultrasound Waves for Targeted Anticancer Therapy

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Ultrasound enables non‐invasive activation of metal‐based therapeutics deep within tumors. Acoustic cavitation can drive sonodynamic reactive oxygen species generation or mechanochemical metal–ligand bond dissociation, enabling controlled release of bioactive payloads.

Acoustic emissions to measure drought-induced cavitation in plants [PDF]

, 2016
Acoustic emissions are frequently used in material sciences and engineering applications for structural health monitoring. It is known that plants also emit acoustic emissions, and their application in plant sciences is rapidly increasing, especially to ...
