Mechanical resonators

Fokker Bond Tester. An ultrasonic inspection technique commonly used for aircraft structures is based on ultrasonic spectroscopy [2]. Commercially available instruments (bond testers) used for this test operate on the principle of mechanical resonance in a multi-layer structure. A piezoelectric probe shown in Figure 3b, excited by a variable frequency sine signal is placed on the surface of the inspected structure. A frequency spectrum in the range of some tens of kHz to several MHz is acquired by the instrument, see Figure 3a. [Pg.108]

At the time the experiments were perfomied (1984), this discrepancy between theory and experiment was attributed to quantum mechanical resonances drat led to enhanced reaction probability in the FlF(u = 3) chaimel for high impact parameter collisions. Flowever, since 1984, several new potential energy surfaces using a combination of ab initio calculations and empirical corrections were developed in which the bend potential near the barrier was found to be very flat or even non-collinear [49, M], in contrast to the Muckennan V surface. In 1988, Sato [ ] showed that classical trajectory calculations on a surface with a bent transition-state geometry produced angular distributions in which the FIF(u = 3) product was peaked at 0 = 0°, while the FIF(u = 2) product was predominantly scattered into the backward hemisphere (0 > 90°), thereby qualitatively reproducing the most important features in figure A3.7.5. [Pg.878]

Reciprocating compressor pulsations were covered in Chapter 3, but neeti to be mentioned with the discussions on reliability. Problems with reciprocating compressor pulsations and the potential for acoustic and mechanical resonances are very similar to those experienced with helical-lobe compressors. The significant difference is the frequencies are much lower and the number of discrete frequencies per compressor aie much less. However, piping vibrations can occur and there is always a... [Pg.481]

Pd4oCu4oP2o, Pd5oCu3oP2o, and Pd6oCu2oP20 alloys were measured by resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS). In this technique, the spectrum of mechanical resonances for a parallelepiped sample is measured and compared with a theoretical spectrum calculated for a given set of elastic constants. The true set of elastic constants is calculated by a recursive regression method that matches the two spectra [28,29]. [Pg.295]

It was pointed out in Chapter I that the selection of the primary structures for the discussion of any particular case of quantum-mechanical resonance is arbitrary, but that this arbitrariness (which has an analogue in the classical resonance phenomenon) does not impair the value of the concept of resonance. [Pg.247]

Other noncontact AFM methods have also been used to study the structure of water films and droplets [27,28]. Each has its own merits and will not be discussed in detail here. Often, however, many noncontact methods involve an oscillation of the lever in or out of mechanical resonance, which brings the tip too close to the liquid surface to ensure a truly nonperturbative imaging, at least for low-viscosity liquids. A simple technique developed in 1994 in the authors laboratory not only solves most of these problems but in addition provides new information on surface properties. It has been named scanning polarization force microscopy (SPFM) [29-31]. SPFM not only provides the topographic stracture, but allows also the study of local dielectric properties and even molecular orientation of the liquid. The remainder of this paper is devoted to reviewing the use of SPFM for wetting studies. [Pg.247]

If an electric held of the proper frequency is applied across the quartz crystal, the crystal wiU oscillate in a mechanically resonant mode. These condihons correspond to the creation of a standing acoustic shear wave that has a node midpoint between the two faces of the crystal and two antinodes at both faces of the disk. This is depicted schematically in Eig. 21.20b. In an EQCM experiment the crystals are operated at the fundamental resonant frequency that is a function of the thickness of the crystal. A crystal with a thickness of 330pm has a resonant frequency of 5 MHz. Crystals with these characteristics are commercially available. In an EQCM experiment, an alternating electric field of 5 MHz is applied to excite the quartz crystal into... [Pg.488]

The zincblende (ZB), or sphalerite, structure is named after the mineral (Zn,Fe) S, and is related to the diamond structure in consisting entirely of tetrahedrally-bonded atoms. The sole difference is that, unlike diamond, the atoms each bond to four unlike atoms, with the result that the structure lacks an inversion center. This lack of an inversion center, also characteristic of the wurtzite structure (see below), means that the material may be piezoelectric, which can lead to spurious ringing in the free-induction decay (FID) when the electric fields from the rf coil excite mechanical resonances in the sample. (Such false signals can be identified by their strong temperature dependence due to thermal expansion effects, and by their lack of dependence on magnetic field strength). [Pg.238]

Many different methods have been developed for detecting the minute deflection of the cantilever (Sarid, 1991). In this. section, we present several important ones, including vacuum tunneling (Binnig, Quate, and Gerber, 1986), mechanical resonance (Diirig, Gimzewski, and Pohl 1986), optical interferometry (Martin et al., 1988 Erlandson et al., 1988), and optical beam deflection (Meyer and Amer, 1988). [Pg.317]

Next, we discuss the magnetic behaviour of the materials described here as B/U is varied. The moment at T=0 in the antiferromagnetic lattice and Goodenough s (1971) conjecture for the Neel temperature are shown in Fig. 4.12. There exists at present no good theoretical description of the way TN drops as we go towards the value of B/U where the moments vanish. Near this value we do not expect an entropy /cBln 2 on going through the Neel point. With small values of there is a quantum-mechanical resonance between the two directions of the moment, and the moments on a given atom are nearly equal, so < z> is small at TN they become equal. The susceptibility should appear as in Fig. 4.13. [Pg.143]

It is shown elsewhere [24] that on this basis an analysis of the electronic perturbations in excited states resulting from wave-mechanical resonance offers a qualitative, but very detailed, understanding of the observations and empirical conclusions summarized in... [Pg.263]

Quantum mechanics has made important contributions to the development of theoretical chemistry, e.g. the concept of quantum mechanical resonance in the interpretation of the perturbation in the excited states of polyelectronic systems, the concept of exchange in the formation of a covalent bond, the concept of non-localized bonds (though, in my view, unsatisfactory and only arising from a neglect of electronic repulsions), the concept of dispersion forces etc., but it is noteworthy that all these ideas owe their success and justification to their ability to account qualitatively for previously unexplained experimental facts rather than to their quantitative mathematical aspect. [Pg.390]

Various types of the so-called magnetostrictive inchworm type of motor have been proposed and built. A two-leg travelling machine using a magnetostrictive bimorph actuator with 7.5 /zm-thick polyimtde is shown in fig. 86b (Honda et al. 1994 Arai and Honda 1996). In an alternating magnetic field, it can travel in one direction. The maximum speed of approximately 5 mm/s was obtained around the mechanical resonant frequency... [Pg.186]

The discussions that may be given of resonance in various molecules may seem to the reader to be so far from quantitative in nature as to be without value. It is true that the picture presented of the structure of a resonating molecule is often rather indefinite but in the years that have gone by since the quantum-mechanical resonance phenomenon was first applied to problems of molecular structure encouraging progress has been made in the formulation of a semiquantitative system, with the aid of both experimental and theoretical methods, and we can hope for further progress in the future. [Pg.265]
