- Technology for controlling nonlinear vibration phenomena through oscillation control of original ultrasonic probes -

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed oscillation control technology based on the acoustic characteristics of probes through the manufacturing technology of original ultrasonic probes. This has evolved into technology for controlling the nonlinear vibration phenomena of surface acoustic waves. The key point is the optimization control method for ultrasonic oscillation control tailored to the propagation characteristics of surface acoustic waves on the surface of ultrasonic elements and their intended use (conditions for combining sweep oscillation and pulse oscillation). To achieve this, it is important to dynamically evaluate the propagation state of ultrasound through operational verification of the ultrasonic propagation characteristics of the original probe (sound pressure level, frequency range, nonlinearity, dynamic characteristics, etc.). In particular, it is necessary to measure, analyze, and evaluate the dynamically changing oscillation characteristics of the ultrasonic probe (or element) and the oscillator (function generator) regarding their transmission and reception characteristics. 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)

Nonlinear control technology for ultrasound based on sound pressure measurement analysis.

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed a technology to control nonlinear ultrasonic phenomena by utilizing the interactions generated from simultaneously oscillating two types of ultrasonic probes from one oscillation channel of a function generator. Note: Nonlinear (resonance) phenomena refer to the resonance phenomenon of ultrasonic vibrations that occurs due to the generation of harmonics resulting from original oscillation control, realized at high amplitudes through resonance phenomena. By optimizing the ultrasonic propagation characteristics of various materials according to their intended purpose, efficient ultrasonic oscillation control becomes possible. Through the measurement and analysis of sound pressure data from ultrasonic testers, this system technology allows for the control of dynamic changes in surface elastic waves according to their intended use. In practical terms, the simultaneous oscillation (sweep oscillation, pulse oscillation) of multiple (two types of) ultrasonic probes generates complex vibration phenomena (original nonlinear resonance phenomena), achieving high sound pressure at high frequency propagation states, or low frequency propagation states at high sound pressure levels tailored to the desired natural frequency.

Leading to new applications of ultrasound from sound pressure and vibration data of ultrasound.

Application of ultrasonic sound pressure measurement, analysis, and evaluation technology The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed a method for the analysis and evaluation of ultrasound (system technology) that applies measurement, analysis, and control technology related to the nonlinearity of ultrasound. Using this technology, we will provide measurement, analysis, and evaluation support for ultrasonic devices. For specific support and costs, please contact us via email. *Comment* Currently, regarding the use of ultrasound, I believe it is very difficult to detect and confirm the optimal ultrasonic state for the intended purpose. Therefore, by incorporating "sound pressure data" into the daily management of ultrasound, we aim to resolve the relationship with the final evaluation state (defect rate, yield, etc.) through the accumulation and analysis of statistical data. By analyzing using time-series data analysis technology, effective improvements have been realized. As a result of continuing such improvements, the number of successful cases using low-output ultrasonic oscillation control has increased. We have been manufacturing and selling our original product: ultrasonic systems (sound pressure measurement analysis, oscillation control) since March 2021.

Control technology for acoustic flow (nonlinear phenomena) based on sound pressure measurement analysis.

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed a system that applies technology to measure and analyze the state of ultrasonic waves propagating in the liquid within an ultrasonic tank, setting and controlling the propagation state of ultrasonic waves according to the effects of the tank's structure, strength, manufacturing conditions, and the state of liquid circulation. The liquid circulation within the ultrasonic tank is captured as a system, and the primary purpose of many ultrasonic (tank) applications is to predict or control the sound pressure changes of the liquid inside the tank. However, numerous issues have been pointed out in many implementations due to discrepancies between theory and practice. In response to such cases: 1) The removal of obstacles involves the use of statistical data analysis methods, which is the technology for measuring and analyzing ultrasonic propagation states. 2) Based on the results of data analysis related to the subject, the characteristics of the subject are confirmed, which is the technology for detecting the acoustic properties related to the surface elastic waves of the object. 3) Progressing to control realization through characteristic confirmation involves technology for controlling nonlinear phenomena. By employing the above methods, the utilization state of ultrasonic waves has been improved for efficient use, and there are numerous examples of original systems that have realized the intended use of ultrasonic waves.
