Acoustic Field Calculation of Ultrasonic Phased Array Concave Cylindrical Transducer

Article Preview

Abstract:

The focus law and acoustic field computation method about circular arc linear phased array have been discussed in the paper. Acoustic field of transducers is given by the use of the coordinate transformation and an approximation with rectangle element instead of circular arc element, and was calculated using Rayleigh-Sommerfeld Integral.
