NONLINEAR ACOUSTICS AND SOLID STATE PHYSICS [PDF]

open access: bronzeLe Journal de Physique Colloques, 1979
In addition to mathematical advances and very promising practical applications, the study of Nonlinear Acoustics now is leading to fundamental advances in Solid State Physics. Nonlinear distortion of an ultrasonic wave in a solid is controlled by a nonlinearity parameter which is a function of the third-order elastic (TOE) constants as well as the ...

Experimental Techniques in Solid State and Low-Temperature Acoustics [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1957
At the present time, solid state acoustics extends over the frequency range from about 1 cy/sec up to ultrasonic frequencies of several hundred Mc/sec. A brief survey of the problems and techniques related with different frequency intervals will be presented.

Recent Developments in Solid State Acoustics [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1957
Dislocations in metals are the source of internal friction and elastic dispersion. Depending on the strain amplitude, they can act by several different mechanisms. At the highest strain amplitudes, the Frank-Read source is the predominant mechanism and leads to an anelastic region and a fatigue plastic region. In the fatigue region dislocations can cut

Acoustic analogs for solving problems in solid-state physics [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1990
A basic problem in theoretical solid-state physics is to solve the Schrödinger equation for an electron in the scattering field of some very large number of ions, which is certainly a formidable problem. Fortunately, for a crystal the scattering field is periodic, and one may use Bloch's theorem and obtain a manageable calculation.

Nonlinear waves in a chain of magnetically coupled pendula [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A motivation for the study of reduced models like one-dimensional systems in Solid State Physics is the complexity of the full problem. In recent years our group has studied theoretically, numerically and experimentally wave propagation in lattices of ...

Topological phenomena at defects in acoustic, photonic and solid-state lattices

open access: yesNature Reviews Physics, 2023
There are two prominent applications of the mathematical concept of topology to the physics of materials: band topology, which classifies different topological insulators and semimetals, and topological defects that represent immutable deviations of a solid lattice from its ideal crystalline form.

Surface acoustic wave solid-state rotational micromotor

open access: yesApplied Physics Letters, 2012
Surface acoustic waves (SAWs) are used to drive a 1 mm diameter rotor at speeds exceeding 9000 rpm and torque of nearly 5 nNm. Unlike recent high-speed SAW rotary motors, however, the present design does not require a fluid coupling layer but interestingly exploits adhesive stiction as an internal preload, a force usually undesirable at these scales ...

Modeling for Active Control of Combustion and Thermally Driven Oscillations [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Organized oscillations excited and sustained by high densities of energy release in combustion chambers have long caused serious problems in development of propulsion systems.
