Improving APT Systems’ Performance in Air via Impedance Matching and 3D-Printed Clamp

open access: yesSensors, 2023
This paper presents a study on improving the performance of the acoustic piezoelectric transducer system in air, as the low acoustic impedance of air leads to suboptimal system performance.

ON THE USE OF ACOUSTIC IMPEDANCE VALUES TO DETERMINE SEDIMENT PROPERTIES

open access: yesAcoustic Classification and Mapping of the Seabed 1993
,/ Numerous systems have been developed over the past 25 years for remote classification of sediments. The generation of acoustic impedance as a function of depth is the principle behind operation of most normal-incidence acoustic classification systems.

Tapered transmission line technique based graded matching layers for thickness mode piezoelectric transducers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Conventionally, in order to acoustically match thickness mode piezoelectric transducers to a low acoustic impedance load medium, multiple quarter wavelength (QW) matching layers are employed at the front face of the device.

Influence of Boundary Impedance of 3D Cavity on Targeted Energy Transfer between a Damped Acoustic Mode and a Nonlinear Membrane Absorber

open access: yesMachines, 2022
In order to apply the nonlinear energy sink (NES) to reduce the low-frequency noise inside a 3D acoustic cavity with an impedance boundary, a two degrees-of-freedom (DOF) dynamic model of the coupled system of one damped acoustic mode of a regular 3D ...

Influence of viscoelasticity and interfacial slip on acoustic wave sensors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Acoustic wave devices with shear horizontal displacements, such as quartz crystal microbalances (QCM) and shear horizontally polarised surface acoustic wave (SH-SAW) devices provide sensitive probes of changes at solid-solid and solid- liquid interfaces.

Adjustable Phase-Amplitude-Phase Acoustic Metasurface for the Implementation of Arbitrary Impedance Matrices

open access: yesResearch
Impedance metasurfaces enable accurate regulation of acoustic fields. However, they can hardly supply a flexible response as such perfect operation is accompanied by stringent requirements on the design of unit cells.

Design and experimental evaluation of a travelling wave thermoacoustic engine

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2020
In a thermoacoustic engine, acoustic impedance plays a key role to improve the system performance. A matching stub is a component which can be applied to adjust the acoustic impedance.
