Beams-driven structures for piezoelectric energy harvesting/sensor and piezoelectric actuator
Beams-driven structures are structures that use beams to support their weight. The beams are typically arranged in a way that distributes the weight of the structure evenly. Beams-driven structures are often used in buildings, bridges, and other complicated structures. Beams-driven ... Read More
Studies on the effects of interfering structural vibrations on underwater Acoustic Vector Sensor
In this paper, we report FEM studies of the effect of unwanted interfering structural vibrations on the performance of an underwater Acoustic Vector Sensor (AVS) performed in the COMSOL Multiphysics simulation tool. An AVS is a compact sensor that measures a four-dimensional vector ... Read More
Underwater acoustic scattering studies on the sub-sea pressure housings
This paper presents a finite element (FE) model of the scattering studies of cylindrical pressure housings made of different metallic alloys such as aluminium, stainless steel 316L and titanium. Understanding the acoustic scattering behavior of underwater objects helps in improving ... Read More
Optimization of Loudspeakers
Loudspeakers, specifically electrodynamic transducers with enclosures, are used almost everywhere in our life. Transportation of acoustic information is vital for humans since the very beginning of the human evolution. Hence, reproduction of acoustics has a long tradition in engineering ... Read More
Acoustic manipulation capabilities of a multifrequency AlN based PMUT
Contactless manipulation of microscopic objects through acoustic waves has proven an attractive solution for several applications over the past decades. This modality is particularly interesting for the manipulation of bio-particles (BPs) due to its relatively low intensities, capability ... Read More
