Efficacy of ultrasonics and Er,Cr:YSGG laser on root surface calculus removal: A comparative in vitro field emission scanning electron microscope study [PDF]
Background. Scaling and root planing (SRP) is an inevitable primary step in non-surgical periodontal therapy. Debridement carried out with manual instruments and ultrasonics results in the removal of tooth structure.

Ultrasound array transmitter architecture with high timing resolution using embedded phase-locked loops [PDF]
Coarse time quantization of delay profiles within ultrasound array systems can produce undesirable sidelobes in the radiated beam profile. The severity of these sidelobes is dependent upon the magnitude of phase quantization error - the deviation from ...

Shear horizontal (SH) ultrasound wave propagation around smooth corners [PDF]
Shear horizontal (SH) ultrasound guided waves are being used in an increasing number of non-destructive testing (NDT) applications. One advantage SH waves have over some wave types, is their ability to propagate around curved surfaces with little energy ...

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 ...

Using Ultrasonics to Measure Process Variables
Ultrasonics can be used in industrial processes to measure a number of variables. Liquid level can be determined by pulse-echo techniques. Flowrates can be measured by time-of-flight or doppler methods.
