Diversity in ultrasonics [PDF]
I recently had the opportunity to read about research on ecological surveys involving wild animals such as penguins, seals and whales. A technique called ‘‘bio-logging’’ involves the attaching of small positioning devices to the bodies of animals to better understand what they do and where.

Understanding and measuring mechanical signals in the tumor stroma
This review discusses cancer‐associated fibroblast subtypes and their functions, particularly in relation to extracellular matrix production, as well as the development of 3D models to study tumor stroma mechanics in vitro. Several quantitative techniques to measure tissue mechanical properties are also described, to emphasize the diagnostic and ...

Locating tube blockage that X-ray cannot detect [PDF]
Alternate choices to X-ray use in detecting foreign materials in metal assemblies are available, including negative radiography, neutron radiography, liquid-crystal inspection and ultrasonics. Advantages and disadvantages of each method are given. Report

Anomalous absorption of bulk shear sagittal acoustic waves in a layered structure with viscous fluid [PDF]
It is demonstrated theoretically that the absorptivity of bulk shear sagittal waves by an ultra-thin layer of viscous fluid between two different elastic media has a strong maximum (in some cases as good as 100%) at an optimal layer thickness.

Microscale acoustofluidics: Microfluidics driven via acoustics and ultrasonics
This article reviews acoustic microfiuidics: the use of acoustic fields, principally ultrasonics, for application in microfiuidics. Although acoustics is a classical field, its promising, and indeed perplexing, capabilities in powerfully manipulating ...

20 Hz mechanical vibration induced A431 cancer cells' apoptosis without such effect on other healthy cell lines of L929 and C2C12. Lowered glucose consumption is observed specifically in A431. The expressions of ROS, HMGB1, and HSP1 levels initially increase and subsequently decrease in the cancer cell line, as opposed to L929 and C2C12, which ...

Teaching ultrasonics using spreadsheets [PDF]
Whenever an ultrasonic wave encounters a boundary between two media it is partially reflected and refracted, as any acoustic wave would be. Unlike light, the wave also undergoes mode conversion so that in the general case a single incident wave could ...
