Abstract:
The field of acoustics is emerging as a significant supplementary modality that should be investigated and utilized in the development of intelligence and surveillance systems. These systems often depend on technology that is rooted in the singularity of electromagnetic fields. Acoustic sensors are preferred because of their affordability, robustness, and small size. They are also passive. Furthermore, sound energy can go beyond a line of sight. The current scenario can be used to the detection and localization of sound sources utilizing Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) and ground-based Acoustic

Abstract:
The insulation of power equipment can be effectively assessed by analyzing the acoustic signals originated from partial discharges (PD). Fabry-Perot (F-P) sensors are capable of detecting PD acoustic signals. Although the frequency bandwidth of an F-P sensor is mainly referred to conventional piezoelectric transducer (PZT) sensor, it is still doubtful to identify a suitable bandwidth for fiber sensors in detection of PD signals. To achieve a suitable bandwidth for an F-P sensor, the frequency distribution of PD acoustic emission is investigated, and an extrinsic F-P sensor is designed to detec

Through the more available acoustic information or the polarization information provided, vector sensor arrays outperform the scalar sensor arrays in accuracy of localization. However, the cost of a vector sensor array is higher than that of a scalar sensor array.

Acoustic emission is a nondestructive testing technology based on the propagation of transient elastic waves captured by acoustic emission sensors.

Carbon nanocoils (CNCs) are widely used in functional devices due to their helical morphology, which can be utilized in the fabrication of functional materials with unique properties. In this study, CNCs/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composite films were prepared using an electrostatic spinning method and used to form a diaphragm for Fabry–Perot acoustic sensors. With the addition of CNCs, the fabricated composite film showed enhanced mechanical performance responding to acoustic wave pressure. Considering the optical and mechanical response, the content of CNCs was set as 0.14 wt.%; the highest aco

Abstract:
The wave speed of acoustic emission in the medium is uncertain, which is influenced by the source characteristics and the relative position between the acoustic emission source and the sensors. Due to this difference, the results of TDOA location method determination of wave speed in advance are very discrete. As to liner location ,the more farther the distance between two acoustic emission source sensor are, the more serious the discrete error are. Any of the two sensors, a location line can be obtained by setting the wave speed as a horizontal coordinate and the location as the vertical coor

Introduction. Microacoustic sensors based on surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices allow the sensor integration into a wafer based microfluidic analytical platforms such as lab-on-a-chip. Currently exist various approaches of application of SAW devices for liquid properties analysis. But this sensors probe only a thin interfacial liquid layer. The motivation to develop the new SAW-based sensor is to overcome this limitation. The new sensor introduced here uses acoustic measurements, including surface acoustic waves (SAW) and acoustic methamaterial sensor approaches. The new sensor can become the

Abstract:
Acoustic emission (AE) sensors and ultrasonic transducers were characterized for the detection of Rayleigh waves (RW). Small aperture reference sensors were characterized first using the fracture of glass capillary tubes in combination with a theoretical displacement calculation, which utilized finite element method (FEM) and was verified by laser interferometer. For the calibration of 18 commercial sensors and two piezoceramic disks, a 90° angle beam transducer was used to generate RW pulses on an aluminum transfer block. By a substitution method, RW receiving sensitivity of a sensor under te

Abstract:
Abstract During the last two decades, acoustic Doppler velocimeters (ADVs) and other acoustic sensors have been used by researchers in the ocean science community to acquire information on current velocity and turbulence. More recently, acoustic backscatter systems (ABS) and acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs) have been investigated for their use in determining sediment concentrations and particle sizes. Acoustic systems tend to be less prone to biofouling than optical turbidity sensors, and the high-frequency velocity measurements allow for a direct estimation of turbulence by the flux

Abstract:
Bulk acoustic wave (BAW) and surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensor devices have successfully been used in a wide variety of gas sensing, liquid sensing, and biosensing applications. Devices include BAW sensors using thickness shear modes and SAW sensors using Rayleigh waves or horizontally polarized shear waves (HPSWs). Analyte specificity and selectivity of the sensors are determined by the sensor coatings. If a group of analytes is to be detected or if only selective coatings (i.e., coatings responding to more than one analyte) are available, the use of multi-sensor arrays is advantageous, as t

The goal of this study is to evaluate the swallowing functions of people with dysphagia using an acoustic microphone sensor. As a basic investigation towards this end, we measured the swallowing sounds using an acoustic emissions microphone sensor (AE sensor), then analyzed the frequency range of the measured signals, and we examined the method for obtaining the necessary information to evaluate the swallowing functions. For the measurement, two types of sensors, i.e., a condenser throat microphone and an AE sensor, were employed to measure the swallowing sounds. The acoustic signals obtained
