유체로 채워진 원통형 압전진동자 내부에서 중심축으로 집속되는 음파에 대해 진동자 내부에 삽입된 동심원의 고체튜브가 음장분포에 미치는 영향을 해석하였다. 원통형 압전진동자의 내부로부터 방사된 음파는 유체매질을 지나 고체튜브의 벽면에서 반사 및 투과를 하여 중심축에 집속된다. 이때 고체튜브의 음향임피던스 및 두께 등에 의해 중심에 집속되는 음장 분포가 변한다. 이를 이론적으로 해석하기 위하여 각 매질에 대한 전달행렬을 도출하였고 이를 적용하여 중심축에서의 음압수준을 이론적으로 해석하였다. 여러 가지 두께를 갖는 아크릴 튜브에 대해서 중심축 상에서 측정한 음압수준의 변화는 이론해석의 결과와 잘 일치하였으며 중심에 형성되는 음압은 고체튜브의 두께에 따라 매우 민감하게 변화함을 확인하였다.

This paper presents the effect of driving waveform for piezoelectric bend mode inkjet printhead with optimized mechanical design. Experimental and theoretical studies on the applied driving waveform versus jetting characteristic s were performed. The inkjet head has been designed to maximize the droplet velocity, minimize voltage response of the actuator and optimize the firing frequency to eject ink droplet. The head design was carried out by using mechanical simulation. The printhead has been fabricated with Si(100) and SOI wafers by MEMS process and silicon direct bonding method. To investigate how performance of the piezoelectric ceramic actuator influences on droplet diameter and droplet velocity, the method of stroboscopy was used. Also we observed the movement characteristics of PZT actuator with LDV(Laser Doppler Vibrometer) system, oscilloscope and dynamic signal analyzer. Missing nozzles caused by bubbles in chamber were monitored by their resonance frequency. Using the water based ink of viscosity of 4.8 cps and surface tension of 0.025N/m, it is possible to eject stable droplets up to 20kHz, 4.4m/s and above 8pL at the different applied driving waveforms.

In this study, the optimum conditions for manufacturing PVDF nano web according to various electrospinning conditions such as solution concentration and applied voltage conditions were confirmed. The optimum spinning conditions were studied by analyzing the changes in the radioactivity of PVDF/TiO₂ nano web according to the TiO₂ content and the content of β-phase closely related to the piezoelectric properties under established conditions. As a result, it was confirmed that the concentration of the spinning solution was 20 wt%, the applied voltage was 25 kV, and the TiO₂ content was 5 phr. PVDF nano web and PVDF/TiO₂ nano web were observed morphologies through Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM) analysis. Formation of β-phase by electrospinning was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR) and X-ray Diffractometer(XRD), and the effect of the trapped nano web structure on the piezoelectric properties was investigated.

The dielectric and piezoelectric properties of silver added 0.96 Pb(Z $r_{0.52}$ $Ti_{0.48}$) $O_3$-0.04 Pb(Mn,W,Sb,Nb)$_3$ ceramics were examined. By varying the contents of silver(0.0, 0.4, 1.0 mol%), the effect of silver addition on PZT-PMWSN ceramics was investigated at various sintering temperature(900, 1000, 1100 $^{\circ}C$). As increasing silver contents, the relative dielectric constant was increased and sinterability was enhanced. At the specimen with 0.4 mol% Ag and sintered at 1000 $^{\circ}C$, electromechanical coupling factor( $k_{p}$), mechanical quality factor( $Q_{m}$), dielectric constant($\varepsilon$$_{r}$) and dielectric loss were 0.502, 811, 991, 0.006, respectively. The results showed that the PZT-PMWSN/Ag composites have enhanced piezoelectic and dielectric properties and sintering temperature was lowered.red.

Solution-based, direct-write patterning by an automated, computer-controlled, inkjet technique is of particular interest in a wide variety of industrial fields. We report the construction of three-dimensional (3D), micro-patterned structures by polymer inkjet printing. A piezoelectric, drop-on-demand (DOD) inkjet printing system and a common polymer, PVA (poly(vinyl alcohol)), were explored for 3D construction. After a systematic preliminary study with different solvent systems, a mixture of water and DMSO was chosen as an appropriate solvent for PVA inks. The use of water as a single solvent resulted in frequent PVA clogging when the nozzles were undisturbed. Among the tested polymer ink compositions, the PVA inks in a water/DMSO mixture (4/1 v/v) with concentrations of 3 to 5 g/dL proved to be appropriate for piezoelectric DOD inkjet printing because they were well within the proper viscosity and surface tension range. When a dot was printed, the so-called 'coffee-ring effect' was significant, but its appearance was not prominent in line printing. The optimal polymer inkjet printing process was repeated slice after slice up to 200 times, which produced a well-defined, 3 D micro-patterned surface. The overall results implied that piezoelectric DOD polymer inkjet printing could be a powerful, solid-freeform, fabrication technology to create a controlled 3D architecture.

Purpose: Ultrasonic scalers have been widely used for removing biofilm which is considered as major etiologic factor of periodontal disease. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of working parameters of piezoeletric ultrasonic scaler with scaler tip (No. 1 tip) on casting gold alloy removal. Methods: Type III dental casting gold alloy (Firmilay$^{circledR}$, Jelenko Inc, CA, USA) was used as substitute for tooth substance. Piezoeletric ultrasonic scaler and No.1 scaler tip (P-Max$^{circledR}$, Satelec, France) were selected. The selected working parameters were mode (P mode, S mode), power setting (2, 4, 8) and lateral force (0.5 N, 1.0 N, 2.0 N). The effect of working parameters was evaluated in terms of ablation depth, ablation width and ablation area. Results: Mode influenced ablation depth and ablation area. Power also influenced ablation depth and ablation area. Especially, Power 2 and power 8 showed statistically significant difference. Lateral force had influence on ablation width, and 0.5 N resulted significant increase compared with 1.0 N and 2.0 N. Ablation depth was influenced by mode, power and lateral force and defect width was influenced by lateral force. Ablation area was influenced by mode and power. Conclusions: It can be concluded that the use of piezoelectric ultrasonic scaler with No. 1 scaler tip in S mode and high power may result in significant loss of tooth substance.

Researches using time reversal acoustics(TRA) for impact localization have been paid attention to recently. Dispersion characteristics of Lamb waves, which restrict the utility of classical nondestructive evaluation based on time-of-flight information, can be compensated through the application of TRA to Lamb waves on a plate. This study investigates the spatial focusing performance of time reversal Lamb waves on a plate using finite element analysis. In particular, the virtual sensor effect caused by multiple wave reflections at the boundaries of a plate is shown to enable the spatial focusing of Lamb waves though a very small number of surface-bonded piezoelectric(PZT) sensors are available. The time window size of forward response signals, are normalized with respect to the number of virtual active sensors. Then their effects on the spatial focusing performance of Lamb waves are investigated.

Guided wave testing is a reliable and safe method for pipeline inspection. In general, guided wave testing employs a circumferential array of piezoelectric transducers to clamp on the pipe circumference. The sensitivity of the operation depends on many factors, including transducer distribution across the circumferential array. This paper presents the sensitivity analysis of transducer array for the circumferential characteristics of guided waves in a pipe using finite element modelling and experimental studies. Various cases are investigated for the outputs of guided waves in the numerical simulations, including the number of transducers per array, transducer excitation variability and variations in transducer spacing. The effect of the dimensions of simulated notches in the pipe is also investigated for different arrangements of the transducer array. The results from the finite element numerical simulations are then compared with the related experimental results. Results show that the numerical outputs agree well with the experimental data, and the guided wave mode T(0,1) presents high sensitivity to the notch size in the circumferential direction, but low sensitivity to the notch size in the axial direction.

Distributed piezoelectric sensor and actuator system has been designed for the active vibration control of shell structure. PVDF is used for the materials of sensor/actuator. To prevent the adverse effect of spillover, distributed modal sensor/actuator system is established. Although shell structure is three-dimensional structure, the PVDF sensor/actuator system can be treated as two-dimensional Finite element programs are developed to consider curved structures having PVDF modal sensor/actuator. The nine-node Mindlin shell element with five nodal degree of freedoms is used for finite element discretization. The electrode patterns and lamination angle of PVDF sensor/actuator are optimized to design the modal sensor/actuator system Genetic algorithm is used for optimization. Sensor is designed to minimize the observation spillover, and actuator is designed to minimize the system energy of the control modes under a given initial condition. Modal sensor/actuator for the first and second modes of singly curved cantilevered shell structure are designed using mentioned methods. Discrete LQG method is used as a control law. Experimental demonstrations of the active vibration control with designed sensor/actuator system have been performed successfully.
