Using Flexural Waves to Create Acoustic Transducers for Nondestructive-Test Systems

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

Abstract

We present the results of theoretical and experimental studies of the field structure of a distributed flexural-wave antenna. The efficiency of mechanical-acoustical transformation in such an antenna and the prospects for its applications in ultrasound systems of nondestructive testing are estimated.
