Ultrasonic oscillation and control technology based on measurement and analysis using an ultrasonic tester.

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 that occurs when the generation of harmonics produced by original oscillation control is realized at high amplitudes, resulting in ultrasonic vibration resonance. 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 dynamic changes of surface elastic waves to be controlled according to their intended use. In practical terms, multiple (two types of) ultrasonic probes generate multiple (two types of) oscillations (sweep oscillation, pulse oscillation), which create complex vibration phenomena (original nonlinear resonance phenomena), achieving high sound pressure at high frequency propagation states, or achieving low frequency propagation states with high sound pressure levels tailored to the desired natural frequency.
