Technology to control low-frequency resonance phenomena and high-frequency nonlinear phenomena.

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed technology to manufacture ultrasonic probes that can control ultrasonic propagation states from 500 Hz to over 500 MHz, tailored to specific applications. Ultrasonic Probe: Overview Specifications Measurement Range: 0.01 Hz to 200 MHz Oscillation Range: 1.0 kHz to 25 MHz Propagation Range: 0.5 kHz to over 900 MHz (confirmed through acoustic pressure data analysis) Materials: Stainless steel, LCP resin, silicon, Teflon, glass, etc. Oscillation Equipment: Example - Function Generator By understanding the acoustic properties of metals, resins, glass, etc., and through oscillation control, we achieve propagation states tailored to specific purposes regarding acoustic pressure levels, frequencies, and dynamic characteristics. This is a new foundational technology for precision cleaning, processing, stirring, and inspection based on measurement, analysis, and evaluation techniques for ultrasonic propagation states. By utilizing the acoustic properties of various materials, ultrasonic stimulation can be controlled for structures and machine tools weighing several tons, even in a 3000-liter water tank, with ultrasonic output below 20 W. It was developed as an application method for nonlinear phenomena through an engineering (experimental and technical) perspective on elastic waves and an abstract algebraic ultrasonic model.

Technology for optimizing the resonance and nonlinear phenomena of ultrasonic vibrations through megahertz oscillation control of an original ultrasonic oscillation control probe.

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed a technology to control the nonlinear vibration phenomena of surface acoustic waves through ultrasonic oscillation control techniques. By confirming the basic acoustic characteristics of ultrasonic waves (response characteristics, propagation characteristics) for various targets (water tanks, transducers, probes, fixtures, objects, etc.), we realize ultrasonic propagation states tailored to specific applications through oscillation control. Using two or more types of nonlinear resonant ultrasonic oscillation control probes, we dynamically control high-frequency propagation states above 900 MHz through the setting of oscillation conditions for sweep oscillation and pulse oscillation (note), resulting in high sound pressure level resonance phenomena and the generation of harmonics (nonlinear phenomena of 10th order and above). Note: Precision cleaning examples Sweep oscillation: 700 kHz – 20 MHz, 15 W Pulse oscillation: 13 MHz, 8 W Ultrasonic propagation characteristics: 1) Detection of vibration modes (changes in autocorrelation) 2) Detection of nonlinear phenomena (changes in bispectrum) 3) Detection of response characteristics (analysis of impulse response) 4) Detection of interactions (analysis of power contribution rates) Note: "R" statistical processing language autcor: autocorrelation analysis function bispec: bispectrum analysis function

New ultrasonic dynamic control technology

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed a completely new dynamic control technology for ultrasound using two function generators. This technology enables the control of ultrasonic nonlinear phenomena and resonance phenomena through different types of (sweep) oscillation using two different waveforms. By applying this technology, we are developing practical methods to relieve surface residual stress in components and various application technologies, and we provide consulting services. Standard settings: 1) Sweep oscillation control from 3 MHz to 20 MHz 2) Sweep oscillation control from 60 kHz to 13 MHz 3) Ultrasonic dynamic control using a 42 kHz 35W ultrasonic cleaner (realizing dynamic fluctuation-type ultrasonic propagation control) Note: Regarding the surface of the ultrasonic cleaner's tank, surface residual stress relief and uniform treatment are performed using an ultrasonic oscillation control probe and a degassing fine bubble generation liquid circulation device. As a result of the uniformization effect, ultrasonic control using harmonics above 200 MHz has been achieved.

Acoustic flow control technology using ultra-fine bubbles and megahertz ultrasound.

<<Deaeration Fine Bubble Generation Liquid Circulation Device>> 1) By narrowing the suction side of the pump, cavitation is generated. 2) Cavitation causes bubbles of dissolved gas to form. The above describes the state of the deaeration liquid circulation device. 3) When the concentration of dissolved gas decreases, the bubble size of the dissolved gas due to cavitation becomes smaller. 4) Through appropriate liquid circulation, fine bubbles of less than 20μ are generated. The above describes the state of the deaeration microbubble generation liquid circulation device. 5) When ultrasonic waves are applied to the above-mentioned deaeration fine bubble generation liquid circulation device, the ultrasonic waves disperse and crush the fine bubbles, and when measuring the fine bubbles, the distribution of ultrafine bubbles becomes greater than that of fine bubbles. The above state indicates that ultrasonic waves can be stably controlled. 6) In the state where ultrasonic waves can be stably controlled, the original product: a megahertz ultrasonic oscillation control probe is used to control the oscillation of megahertz (1-20 MHz) ultrasonic waves. The method of controlling the sound pressure level is achieved by controlling the original nonlinear resonance phenomenon of liquid circulation and megahertz ultrasonic waves, setting and controlling it to an effective dynamic state.
