Ultrasonic Transducers Made From Freeze-Cast Porous Piezoceramics [PDF]
Porous and composite piezoelectric ceramics are of interest for underwater ultrasonic transducers due to their improved voltage sensitivity and acoustic matching with water, compared with their dense counterparts. Commonly, these materials are fabricated by dice-and-fill of sintered blocks of polycrystalline piezoceramic, which results in a high volume

Piezoceramic Element Design and Fabrication for Ultrasonic Transducer of Gas Meter [PDF]
Ultrasonic transducers play a significant role in generating and receiving the acoustic waves in ultrasonic flowmeters. Depending on the required accuracy, the ultrasonic transducers can be installed either in one pair or more in an ultrasonic flowmeter.

Full and half-wavelength ultrasonic percussive drills [PDF]
Ultrasonic-percussive drills are a leading technology for small rock drilling applications where power and weight-on-bit are at a premium. The concept uses ultrasonic vibrations to excite an oscillatory motion in a free-mass, which then delivers ...
