Ultrasound consulting specialized in measurement and analysis of ultrasonic propagation conditions.

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute conducts consulting related to ultrasonic applications using a technology that measures, analyzes, and evaluates the propagation state of ultrasound, applying feedback analysis techniques based on multivariate autoregressive models. By organizing the measurements, analyses, and results obtained using ultrasonic testers in chronological order, we establish and confirm new evaluation criteria (parameters) that indicate the appropriate ultrasonic state for specific purposes. Note: - Nonlinear characteristics (dynamic characteristics of acoustic flow) - Response characteristics - Fluctuation characteristics - Effects due to interactions By developing original measurement and analysis methods that consider the acoustic properties of the target object and surface elastic waves, we deepen our understanding of the relationships between various effects related to vibration phenomena, drawing on the principles of statistical mathematics. As a result, there is an increasing number of cases demonstrating that new nonlinear parameters are highly effective regarding the propagation state of ultrasound and the surface of the target object. In particular, evaluation cases related to cleaning, processing, and surface treatment effects lead to successful control and improvement based on good confirmations.

Relaxation and uniform treatment of surface residual stress using ultra-fine bubbles and megahertz acoustic flow control.

<<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 size of the bubbles formed by 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 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.

Sound flow control technology

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed ultrasonic cleaning technology that enables control of acoustic flow (ultrasonic propagation state) in the range of 1-100 MHz by utilizing a megahertz ultrasonic oscillation control probe for ultrasonic cleaners. This is a new application technology for precision cleaning, processing, and stirring, based on the measurement, analysis, evaluation, and technology of ultrasonic propagation states. 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. The key point is the use of tools (elastic bodies: metal, glass, resin). By confirming the propagation characteristics of ultrasonic waves based on the conditions of the target object, it is important to address it as an original nonlinear resonance phenomenon. Note 1: Original Nonlinear Resonance Phenomenon The resonance phenomenon of ultrasonic vibrations occurs when the generation of harmonics caused by original oscillation control is realized at high amplitudes through resonance phenomena. We believe that this technology can be utilized in various fields, and we are implementing proposals in various consulting services.

The Ultrasonic System Research Institute has developed (and published) a method to adapt technology for relaxing residual stress near surfaces using ultrasound and microbubbles to ultrasonic transducers. The technology for relaxing residual stress through ultrasound and microbubbles has led to improvements in fatigue strength against metal fatigue, which in turn contributes to the uniformity of the surface of ultrasonic transducers and the efficiency of ultrasonic oscillation, significantly changing the usage of ultrasound. In particular, in ultrasonic cleaning using detergents and solvents, ultrasound has been effectively controlled to achieve reflection, refraction, and transmission according to the acoustic characteristics of the target object by setting conditions tailored to the purpose. This technology will be offered as a consulting service.

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.
