Transverse ultrasound absorption in cubic crystals with positive and negative anisotropies of second-order elasticity moduli [PDF]
arXiv, 2007 The transverse ultrasound absorption in cubic crystals with positive and negative anisotropies of the second-order elasticity moduli is analyzed. The scattering of the ultrasound by defects and during anharmonic scattering processes is considered. The transverse ultrasound absorption is analyzed as a function of the wave-vector direction in terms of ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A hybrid system for de‐icing made of gradient polymer coatings, deposited on aluminum coupled with an electromechanical system, is demonstrated as an effective and durable strategy for reducing drastically ice adhesion. The system is capable of detaching ice blocks over the coating in less than 1 s, regardless of the ice type and covered area ...

Enhancing Surgical Robots with Embodied Intelligence for Autonomous Ultrasound Scanning [PDF]
arXivUltrasound robots are increasingly used in medical diagnostics and early disease screening. However, current ultrasound robots lack the intelligence to understand human intentions and instructions, hindering autonomous ultrasound scanning. To solve this problem, we propose a novel Ultrasound Embodied Intelligence system that equips ultrasound robots ...

Frequency shifting of light via multiple ultrasound waves in scattering media [PDF]
arXivWe derive analytical expressions to describe how light is frequency-shifted when interacting with ultrasound within scattering media, due to the modulation of the refractive index induced by the ultrasound pressure waves. The model is validated through Monte Carlo simulations, works for high ultrasound pressures, and allows for many simultaneous ...
