Ultrasonic oscillation (sweep oscillation) system for controlling nonlinear phenomena

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed a technology to control the nonlinear vibration phenomena of surface elastic waves based on the acoustic characteristics of original ultrasonic probes. The key point is the setting of sweep oscillation conditions using two ultrasonic probes (essentially, it cannot be controlled with just one probe for ultrasonic oscillation control. By combining the oscillation settings of the two probes, the occurrence of resonance phenomena and nonlinear phenomena can be controlled). Resonance phenomena and nonlinear phenomena can be controlled within a frequency range tailored to the intended use. In particular, when strong stimulation is required, this is achieved by utilizing low-frequency resonance phenomena (e.g., breaking glass). When high-frequency stimulation is needed, this is achieved by utilizing high-frequency nonlinear phenomena (e.g., 700 MHz stimulation).
