Download or read book Understanding Acoustics written by Steven L. Garrett and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-24 with total page 913 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides a unified approach to acoustics and vibration suitable for use in advanced undergraduate and first-year graduate courses on vibration and fluids. The book includes thorough treatment of vibration of harmonic oscillators, coupled oscillators, isotropic elasticity, and waves in solids including the use of resonance techniques for determination of elastic moduli. Drawing on 35 years of experience teaching introductory graduate acoustics at the Naval Postgraduate School and Penn State, the author presents a hydrodynamic approach to the acoustics of sound in fluids that provides a uniform methodology for analysis of lumped-element systems and wave propagation that can incorporate attenuation mechanisms and complex media. This view provides a consistent and reliable approach that can be extended with confidence to more complex fluids and future applications. Understanding Acoustics opens with a mathematical introduction that includes graphing and statistical uncertainty, followed by five chapters on vibration and elastic waves that provide important results and highlight modern applications while introducing analytical techniques that are revisited in the study of waves in fluids covered in Part II. A unified approach to waves in fluids (i.e., liquids and gases) is based on a mastery of the hydrodynamic equations. Part III demonstrates extensions of this view to nonlinear acoustics. Engaging and practical, this book is a must-read for graduate students in acoustics and vibration as well as active researchers interested in a novel approach to the material.

Book Designing Bulk Acoustic Wave Resonators for Parametric Amplification of Spin Waves

Download or read book Designing Bulk Acoustic Wave Resonators for Parametric Amplification of Spin Waves written by Pratim Chowdhury and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spintronics is an emerging field of research dealing with devices that can potentially exploit the additional degree of freedom provided by the electron spin along with or instead of the conventional electronic charge. One of the most promising aspects of spintronics is the potential use of magnetostatic spin waves as information carriers in logic devices, where information is encoded in the electron spin. A major obstacle in making this a practically viable alternative to conventional electronics is the very large intrinsic spin wave damping in most known magnetic materials. In this work, we propose a new technique of parametrically amplifying spin waves by means of acoustic resonators. An equivalent electrical model of an acoustic resonator was developed to efficiently design the acoustic resonators for the desired frequency ranges. Backward volume magnetostatic spin waves were measured in Yttrium Iron Garnet films at frequencies of 1.7 GHz or higher, requiring acoustic resonators to be designed for at least 3.4 GHz or higher for parametric amplification. Acoustic resonators with resonance frequency of 4 GHz were fabricated.

Book Stochastic Equations  Theory and Applications in Acoustics  Hydrodynamics  Magnetohydrodynamics  and Radiophysics  Volume 1

Download or read book Stochastic Equations Theory and Applications in Acoustics Hydrodynamics Magnetohydrodynamics and Radiophysics Volume 1 written by Valery I. Klyatskin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph set presents a consistent and self-contained framework of stochastic dynamic systems with maximal possible completeness. Volume 1 presents the basic concepts, exact results, and asymptotic approximations of the theory of stochastic equations on the basis of the developed functional approach. This approach offers a possibility of both obtaining exact solutions to stochastic problems for a number of models of fluctuating parameters and constructing various asymptotic buildings. Ideas of statistical topography are used to discuss general issues of generating coherent structures from chaos with probability one, i.e., almost in every individual realization of random parameters. The general theory is illustrated with certain problems and applications of stochastic mathematical physics in various fields such as mechanics, hydrodynamics, magnetohydrodynamics, acoustics, optics, and radiophysics.

Book Nonlinear Ultrasonic and Vibro Acoustical Techniques for Nondestructive Evaluation

Download or read book Nonlinear Ultrasonic and Vibro Acoustical Techniques for Nondestructive Evaluation written by Tribikram Kundu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-19 with total page 759 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This multi-contributed volume provides a practical, applications-focused introduction to nonlinear acoustical techniques for nondestructive evaluation. Compared to linear techniques, nonlinear acoustical/ultrasonic techniques are much more sensitive to micro-cracks and other types of small distributed damages. Most materials and structures exhibit nonlinear behavior due to the formation of dislocation and micro-cracks from fatigue or other types of repetitive loadings well before detectable macro-cracks are formed. Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) tools that have been developed based on nonlinear acoustical techniques are capable of providing early warnings about the possibility of structural failure before detectable macro-cracks are formed. This book presents the full range of nonlinear acoustical techniques used today for NDE. The expert chapters cover both theoretical and experimental aspects, but always with an eye towards applications. Unlike other titles currently available, which treat nonlinearity as a physics problem and focus on different analytical derivations, the present volume emphasizes NDE applications over detailed analytical derivations. The introductory chapter presents the fundamentals in a manner accessible to anyone with an undergraduate degree in Engineering or Physics and equips the reader with all of the necessary background to understand the remaining chapters. This self-contained volume will be a valuable reference to graduate students through practising researchers in Engineering, Materials Science, and Physics. Represents the first book on nonlinear acoustical techniques for NDE applications Emphasizes applications of nonlinear acoustical techniques Presents the fundamental physics and mathematics behind nonlinear acoustical phenomenon in a simple, easily understood manner Covers a variety of popular NDE techniques based on nonlinear acoustics in a single volume

Book Mathematical Model for a Standing Wave Acoustic Parametric Source  SWAPS

Download or read book Mathematical Model for a Standing Wave Acoustic Parametric Source SWAPS written by Peter H. Rogers and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A standing-wave acoustic parametric source (SWAPS) is proposed as a small, low-frequency underwater sound source. SWAPS is a liquid-filled cylindrical tube which is driven at one end by a piston transducer and terminated on the other end by a pressure-release reflector to form a resonant cavity. The piston is driven simultaneously at two high frequencies omega 1 and omega 2 which are at or near resonance for the plane-wave mode in the cavity. The resulting large-amplitude primary sound waves mix nonlinearly to produce secondary sound waves. The secondary wave at the low difference frequency omega 1 - omega 2 passes easily through the relatively thin tube walls and radiates to the far field. In this report the far-field radiation at the difference frequency is calculated by use of the virtual-source-density method. The results are expressed in terms of a quality factor that describes the resonance properties of the system when difference-frequency radiation is being generated. This quality factor, which must be determined experimentally, is an input to the mathematical model. Comparison is made to a traveling-wave acoustic parametric source which employs the same piston transducer as a pump. (Modified author abstract).

Book Stochastic Equations  Theory and Applications in Acoustics  Hydrodynamics  Magnetohydrodynamics  and Radiophysics  Volume 2

Download or read book Stochastic Equations Theory and Applications in Acoustics Hydrodynamics Magnetohydrodynamics and Radiophysics Volume 2 written by Valery I. Klyatskin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In some cases, certain coherent structures can exist in stochastic dynamic systems almost in every particular realization of random parameters describing these systems. Dynamic localization in one-dimensional dynamic systems, vortexgenesis (vortex production) in hydrodynamic flows, and phenomenon of clustering of various fields in random media (i.e., appearance of small regions with enhanced content of the field against the nearly vanishing background of this field in the remaining portion of space) are examples of such structure formation. The general methodology presented in Volume 1 is used in Volume 2 Coherent Phenomena in Stochastic Dynamic Systems to expound the theory of these phenomena in some specific fields of stochastic science, among which are hydrodynamics, magnetohydrodynamics, acoustics, optics, and radiophysics. The material of this volume includes particle and field clustering in the cases of scalar (density field) and vector (magnetic field) passive tracers in a random velocity field, dynamic localization of plane waves in layered random media, as well as monochromatic wave propagation and caustic structure formation in random media in terms of the scalar parabolic equation.
