本文主要研究了固体表面法向力条源在各向同性固体中的辐射阻抗和辐射能量。在研究辐射能量时,用辐射导方法求出辐射源的辐射总能量,用远场的声场求出法向力源所辐射的各种波型(表面波、切变波和压缩波)的能量,结果表明:(1)条源的宽度变宽时,压缩波所占的能量比例增加;(2)当条宽在某一个小的范围内取值时,几种波型所占的能量比例几乎相等;(3)对于不同的条源宽度,用辐射导方法求出的总能量等于用声场方法求出的三种波型的能量之和。这不但证明了固体表面法向力条源激发弹性波时能量的守恒,而且也进一步映证了用稳相法得到的远场声场的正确性。

波叠加声场重构精度的影响因素分析

波叠加法是利用等效源的思想来求解声辐射问题的一种数值方法.其原理并没有确切地规定如何配置等效源.正由于这些不确切性的存在,当将它应用到声场重构时,有必要检验重构的准确性,分析影响重构精度的各种因素,目的是通过分析而获得一些提高重构精度的规律.通过理论分析和数值仿真,分析了各因素对重建准确性的影响.证明等效源必须配置在辐射体内部,而且最好能与辐射体表面共形;但测量面并不需要与辐射体表面共形,而且也不需要在近场测量;还发现,Tikhonov和TSVD正则化方法很适合与波叠加法结合用于声场重构.依据这些规律能更好地应用波叠加法进行声场重构,也将拓宽其应用范围. 关键词： 声场重构 波叠加法 误差影响因素 正则化方法

Transition from transient response to steady state for a layered medium

The transition from transient response to steady-state for a layered medium subjected to antiplane loadings is studied. The steady-state formula for a layered medium is derived and the solutions for a layered half-space are then expressed explicitly in the form of wave number integrals. The transient response solutions for a layered half-space are obtained by the convolution of time harmonic loading function with transient response formula derived analytically from an effective matrix method. Two layered half-spaces with different ratios of wave velocities in the layer and half-space are considered and investigated by means of extensive numerical results to show their quite different transition behavior. The numerical results indicate that transient responses will approach steady state after certain characteristic times when the transient effects die away. The transition phenomena and characteristic times are investigated in detail through the responses from near field to far field as well as from low frequency to high frequency.

The experimental result of directivity pattern conformed the theoretical prediction, which provided the theoretical basis for the engineering application of the transducer.     

Shear Wave Field Radiated by an Electromagnetic Acoustic Transducer

The horizontally polarized ultrasonic shear wave field emitted by an electromagnetic acoustic transducer （EMAT） is studied by the surface force distribution on the EMAT approximately described as an inhomogeneous horizontal shear force. The shear wave directivity pattern is plotted by numerical calculations based on our strictly analytic solutions of the wave field we presented previously. An experimental system of EMAT generation and piezoelectric transducer reception is set up to check the predictions of the theoretical wave field by measuring the ultrasonic signals through aluminium block. The directivity pattern of the wave field obtained from the experimental results conforms the theoretical prediction, which lays a foundation for engineering applications of EMATs.     

Laser Generation of Surface Waves on Cylinder with a Slow Coating

An analytical model of acoustic field excited by a pulsed-laser line source on a coated cylinder is presented. Surface wave dispersive behaviours for a cylinder with a slow coating are analysed and compared with that of a bare cylinder. Based on this analysis, the laser-generated transient response of the perturbed Rayleigh wave and the higher modes of steel cylinder with a zinc coating are calculated from the model using residue theory and FFT technique. The theoretical result from the superposed waveform of the perturbed Rayleigh wave and higher modes agree well with the waveform obtained in experiment. The results show that the model and numerical method provide a useful technique for quantitatively characterizing coating parameters of coated cylinder by the laser generated surface waves.     

Influence of transparent coating thickness on thermoelastic force source and laser-generated ultrasound waves

A numerical model is established to investigate the influence of transparent coating thickness on the laser-generated thermoelastic force source and ultrasound waves in the coating-substrate system by using the finite element method (FEM). Taking into account the effects of thermal diffusion, the finite width and duration of the laser source, as well as the temperature dependence of material properties, the transient temperature distributions are obtained firstly. Applying this temperature field to structure analyses as thermal loading, the thermoelastic stress field and laser-generated ultrasound wave in the specimen are obtained. The generation and propagation of the laser thermoelastically induced stress field and ultrasonic waves in coating-substrate system are presented in detail. The influence of transparent coating thickness on the transient temperature distribution, thermoelastic force source and the laser-generated ultrasound waveforms is investigated. The numerical results indicate that the thermoelastic force source and laser-generated ultrasound waveform are strongly affected by the coating thickness due to the constraint of coating. This method can provide insight into the generation and propagation of the laser-generated stress field in coating-substrate system consisting of a transparent coating and an opaque metallic substrate. It provides theoretical basics to optimize ultrasonic signal generation in particular applications and invert the physical and geometrical parameter of the coating-substrate system more accurately in the experiment.     

Acoustic field excited by a pulsed laser line source in a cylinder

The excitation and propagation of the acoustic waves in an elastic cylinder are studied by laser ultrasonics both theoretically and experimentally. The theoretical analysis of the two-dimensional acoustic field excited by a pulsed laser line source impacting on the generatrix of an elastic cylinder is presented. The dispersive properties for both cylindrical Rayleigh wave and the higher modes--whispering gallery (WG) modes are analyzed in detail. The numerical transient displacement waveforms for a detecting point located another terminal of the cylinder diameter opposite the source are calculated. The experimental excitation and detection of the acoustic waves in an aluminum cylinder are carried out on a laser ultrasonic system, which mainly consists of a Q-switched Nd:YAG laser and a laser interferometer. The wave components of bulk waves and surface waves (cylindrical Rayleigh waves and WG modes) are analyzed by comparing the numerical and experimental waveforms. The results are in good agreement.     

An improved mixed numerical-experimental method for stress field calculation

In this work a numerical-experimental method is used to study the dynamic behavior of an aluminum plate subjected to a small mass impact. The out-of-plane displacements, due to transient bending wave propagation, were assessed for successive time instants, using double pulse TV-holography, also known as pulsed ESPI. The experimental setup and the image processing methods were improved to allow the calculation of the plate transient stress field. Integral transforms are used to obtain the strain fields from spatial derivatives of displacements noisy data. A numerical simulation of the plate transient response was carried out with FEM Ansys^®. For this purpose a PZT transducer was used to record the impact force history, which was inputted in the numerical model. Finally, the comparisons between numerical and experimental results are presented in order to validate the present methodology.
