Local Interaction Simulation Approach vs. Finite Element Modelling for Fault Detection in Medical Ultrasonic Transducer

Article Preview

Abstract:

Ultrasonic transducers are extensively used in medical applications. Any deterioration in their performance can lead to poor quality images. The Local Interaction Simulation Approach (LISA) and Finite Elements are used to model medical ultrasonic transducers. The entire analysis attempts to find out whether the LISA-based methodology could be used for transducer modelling in fault detection applications based on in-air reverberation patterns.
