However, inaccurate ultrasonic dose control may result in ineffective or excessive treatment. Thus, real-time monitoring of the thermal damage formation process is critical. To evaluate the effectiveness of real-time monitoring of B-ultrasound, ex-vivo bovine livers were irradiated by 1.155 MHz focused ultrasound with emission time T1 of 200 ms and interval time T2 of 200 ms. For orthogonal experiments, ultrasound was irradiated at sound power of 100 W, 125 W, and 150 W for 10 s, 20 s, and 40 s, respectively. B-ultrasound image sequences are collected using a 7.5 MHz linear array and compared with backscattered echo signals and thermal damage slices, respectively, to build relationships between B-mode ultrasound monitoring and thermal effect or cavitation effect. The experimental results demonstrated that the tissue ablation process caused by thermal effect cannot be effectively monitored using B-ultrasound, but the process caused by the cavitation effect can. The analysis revealed a strong temporal correlation between the appearance of bright spots in B-ultrasound images and the sudden increase of the scattered echo power spectrum, which were caused by a large number of micro-bubbles from cavitation. The damaged cavity structure of the slices and the development trend of micro-bubbles showed a strong spatial correlation. Furthermore, the sudden increase in the scattered echo signal shows the potential of early warning of cavitation, as it is 1.2–2.0 s ahead of the bright spot in the B-ultrasound image, laying the experimental basis for improving the effectiveness of B-ultrasound monitoring in clinical HIFU surgery.","PeriodicalId":48486,"journal":{"name":"Acta Acustica","volume":"45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90411275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The design goal was to keep the MASAVE at affordable costs and to enable shipping the preassembled system to the subjects for self-setup in home environments. Two experiments were conducted to validate the proposed system. In the first experiment we tested the reliability of speech perception data gathered using the MASAVE in a less controlled, rather noisy environment. Speech recognition thresholds (SRTs) were measured in a lobby versus a sound-attenuated boot. Results show that the data from both sites did not differ significantly and SRT measurements were possible even for speech levels as low as 40–45 dB SPL. The second experiment validated the usability of the preassembled system and the use of pupillometry measurements under conditions of darkness, which can be achieved by applying a textile cover over the MASAVE and the subject to block out light. The results suggest that the tested participants had no usability issues with setting up the system, that the temperature under the cover increased by several degrees only when the measurement duration was rather long, and that pupillometry measurements can be made with the proposed setup. Overall, the validations indicate that the MASAVE can serve as an alternative when lab testing is not possible, and to gather more data or to reach subject groups that are otherwise difficult to reach.","PeriodicalId":48486,"journal":{"name":"Acta Acustica","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76961309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigated its characteristics and revealed the nature of the coupling effect using a theoretical model of two-dimensional PCAWs and simulation experiments. We derived the eigenmode equation describing the behavior of a single waveguide based on the wave acoustic theory and derived analytic expressions for the coupling effects in the PCAWs using the coupled mode theory. Using the finite-element method, we analyzed the waveguide coupling exhibited by this structure given different configurational and acoustic parameter settings. Both theoretical and simulated results indicate that the input wave directed into one of four ports of this structure propagates and tunnels alternately between the two waveguides. Our theoretical model established yields analytic relations between the coupling lengths as well as the dependence on parameters of the evanescent wave and the structure. Analyses indicate wave coupling in the two PCAWs is essentially mediated by the evanescent wave. The unique evolution of the acoustic wave in PCAWs can be employed to develop pure acoustic devices such as frequency-selective filters, directional couplers, and acoustic switches.","PeriodicalId":48486,"journal":{"name":"Acta Acustica","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88229848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adding baffles is one of the methods of passive instability control. Depending on the geometry of the chamber and the type of application, different baffles are used. In this research, the effect of the longitudinal corrugated baffle on the acoustic characteristics of the combustion chamber is investigated numerically. The quality of each baffle configuration is determined by examining their influence on the essential parameters such as natural frequency shift and damping factor. Modal and harmonic analyses for the acoustic field are conducted to investigate the effect of baffles installed in the combustion chamber. According to the obtained results, the addition of baffle shifts resonant frequencies. In other words, a combustor with baffles is more effective in controlling the instabilities than that without baffles. In addition, it increases the damping factor in the first–second circumferential (tangential) modes, making the system more stable. Also, a quantitative assessment of the acoustics by adding baffles shows that combustion chamber finds a better condition from stability point of view, and the bandwidth increase affects the combustion stability.","PeriodicalId":48486,"journal":{"name":"Acta Acustica","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76162879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this paper is to study the principle and the technological feasibility of an active mute using loudspeakers placed in front or around the instrument bell. This mute must reduce the acoustic power emitted by the instrument while avoiding any impact on its playability. At this stage, an optimal control is considered and no real-time controller is implemented. Results show that an active control placed outside the trombone is theoretically feasible and can be efficient to reduce the acoustic power up to 2000 Hz by placing a ring of sources around the bell and a source in front of the trombone. The instrument input impedance is very slightly affected by the control. In accordance with numerical simulations, the experiment showed that placing a control speaker very close in front of the bell of the instrument modifies the pressure field of the instrument in such a way that it allows to obtain a power attenuation greater than the predicted one. The control is technologically achievable but requires a high power for the closest source.","PeriodicalId":48486,"journal":{"name":"Acta Acustica","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88225043","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The sound propagation approach based on Lighthill’s equation introduces a flow-interface boundary condition, similar to permeable boundaries in the Ffowcs–Williams and Hawking’s analogy, which allows the omission of complex geometries in propagation domains. This enables to reduce numeric effort and storage requirements. Thereby, the hybrid aeroacoustic workflow is considered, for which aeroacoustic source terms are computed to couple a flow and a separated acoustic propagation simulation. We present an extensive investigation of Lighthill’s source terms in the sense of the proposed weak formulation of Lighthill’s equation. For validation, measurements from a cold gas test rig are used.

The sound emissions of five slitted leading edge designs are measured at a constant rotational speed and at a constant total-to-static pressure rise of the fans. For both cases, the fan blades with slitted leading edges reduce the turbulence interaction noise and lead to a reduction of the overall sound pressure level for volume flow rates above 0.6 m3 s−1 compared to an axial fan with solid leading edges. The far-field noise analysis shows that the slits result in a noise reduction for frequencies below 2 kHz and a noise increase above 2 kHz. In addition, sound source localization is conducted with a microphone array and rotating beamforming methods are applied. The identified sound source distributions prove that slitted leading edges reduce turbulence interaction noise, but generate broadband noise in the fan blades’ trailing edge regions. The maximum sound reduction due to the slits could be detected at a dimensionless frequency of $ fh/bar{w}approx 0.5$, where f is the frequency, h is the height of the slit and $ bar{w}$ is the mean relative inflow velocity. The noise reduction mechanism on axial fan blades corresponds well to previous investigations on flat-plate airfoils with slits.","PeriodicalId":48486,"journal":{"name":"Acta Acustica","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81190862","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
