Abstract:The vibration mode of a bolt-clamped ultrasonic transducer was experimentally analyzed. In the experiment, a designed and manufactured semicircular wedge-shaped jig was used to apply constant pressure to a narrow band-shaped area on the lateral side of the transducer. Constant force was applied to the jig with a vise and a torque wrench. As the position of the pressure applied by the jig moved along the length of the transducer, the change of the input admittance characteristic of the transducer was observed. … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
