A linear array acoustic transducer with 12 tonpilz elements mounted independently on a gradual wedge-shaped tail mass was fabricated, tested and analyzed. The compensated transducer, which is modified by including a series inductance of 137 µH in the developed linear array transducer, attained improved figure of merit (FOM) performance characteristics compared with the uncompensated transducer. The four resonant frequency bands were identified from the measured FOM curve. The FOM response patterns over the frequency ranges of 31 to 40 kHz and 50 to 60 kHz were relatively uniform, whereas sharp resonance peaks were observed at around 73 kHz and 84 kHz. These results indicate that the developed linear array transducer can be used as an enhanced broadband transducer of echo sounder, and the operating frequency can be selected for more effective echo surveys in the fishing ground.

Linear ultrasonic motor by bimorph. Transducer for linear ultrasonic motor with symmetric and anti-symmetric modes was studied. The transducer was composed of two piezoelectric ceramic that cross at right angles with each other at tip. In order to exist length vibration mode two piezoelectric ceramics must have 90-degree phase difference with each other. As a result, tip of transducer moves in elliptical motion. Elliptical trajectory of transducer was analyzed by employing the (mite element method(FEM). From the result, the linear ultrasonic motor was measured for characteristics. In this paper, vibration shape of transducer was simulated and the resonant frequency, stabilization frequency and maximum displacement were calculated using the FEA.

Linearization of transducer characteristic plays a vital role in electronic instrumentation because all transducers have outputs nonlinearly related to the physical variables they sense. If the transducer output is nonlinear, it will produce a whole assortment of problems. Transducers rarely possess a perfectly linear transfer characteristic, but always have some degree of non-linearity over their range of operation. Attempts have been made by many researchers to increase the range of linearity of transducers. This paper presents a method to compensate nonlinearity of Linear Variable Displacement Transducer (LVDT) based on Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) method, Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) trained by Genetic Algorithm (GA). Because of the mechanism structure, LVDT often exhibit inherent nonlinear input-output characteristics. The best approximation capability of optimized ANN technique is beneficial to this. The use of this proposed method is demonstrated through computer simulation with the experimental data of two different LVDTs. The results reveal that the proposed method compensated the presence of nonlinearity in the displacement transducer with very low training time, lowest Mean Square Error (MSE) value and better linearity. This research work involves less computational complexity and it behaves a good performance for nonlinearity compensation for LVDT and has good application prospect.

Transducer for ultrasonic linear motor with the symmetric and anti-symmetric modes was studied. The ultrasonic linear motor consists of two Langevin type piezoelectric vibrators that cross at right angles with each other in tip. In order to excite symmetric and anti-symmetric modes, the transducer must have a phase shift of 90 degree in space and time. Therefore, the tip of transducer moves on an elliptical motion. In this paper, the finite element analysis was used to optimize dimension and displacement of the transducer The ultrasonic motor was fabricated using the simulated result and the driving characteristics were measured. No-load velocity was 0.28[m/s] and the maximum efficiency was 30[%] in resonance frequency.

본 논문에서는 기존의 비파괴 초음파검사 시 사용되는 단일소자 탐촉자와 부채꼴 위상배열 탐촉자의 단점을 보완할 수 있는 선형배열 탐촉자를 설계 및 제작하였다. 선형배열 탐촉자는 KLM 해석 기반의 PiezoCAD 프로그램과 FEM 해석 기반의 PZFlex 프로그램을 사용하여 설계되었으며 고해상도를 위한 광대역 특성을 갖도록 압전소자 설계 시 2-2 복합체 구조를 도입하였다. 설계된 적층 구조를 바탕으로 128개 소자를 갖는 선형배열 탐촉자를 제작하고 시뮬레이션 결과와 성능 비교를 수행하였다. 제작된 선형배열 탐촉자는 5.5 MHz의 중심주파수를 가지며 -6 dB 에서 70%의 주파수 대역폭을 나타내어 초음파검사 시 검사체 내부의 효과적인 영상을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

본 연구에서는 고분해능 초음파 영상 획득이 가능한 20 MHz 대역의 의료용 초음파 선형 배열 트랜스듀서를 개발하였다. 먼저 고주파 음파의 전파가 용이한 트랜스듀서의 구조를 고안한 후, 구성소자의 최적치수를 도출하였다. 이후 설계에 따라 트랜스듀서의 제작공정을 개발하고, 트랜스듀서 시편의 제작 및 평가를 수행하였다. 제작된 초음파 트랜스듀서는 중심주파수가 19 MHz이고, 비대역폭이 84.5 %, 감도의 표준편차가 0.74 dB로 측정되었다. 측정 결과는 설계 결과와 잘 일치하였으며, 이에 의해 본 연구에서 개발한 고주파 초음파 트랜스듀서 구조의 타당성을 검증하였다. 개발된 트랜스듀서는 새로운 구조에 의해 기존의 20 MHz 트랜스듀서에 비해 더 넓은 주파수 대역폭과 균일한 감도를 가지는 것으로 확인되었다.
