A synthetic jet assembly (10) includes a synthetic jet (12) having a cavity (20) and an opening (30) formed therein. The synthetic jet assembly also includes an actuator element (34,36) coupled to a flexible surface (24,26) of the body to selectively cause displacement of the second surface, and a control unit (42) electrically coupled to the actuator element. The control unit is configured to transmit a multi-frequency drive signal (56) to the actuator element, the multi-frequency drive signal comprising a cooling frequency component (58) and an acoustic frequency component (60) superimposed on the cooling frequency component. The cooling frequency component causes a cooling jet to eject from the opening of the body. The acoustic frequency component produces a desired audible output.

Artifacts due to lateral wave that occurs in a substrate of a Capacitive Micro-machined Ultrasonic Transducer is reduced. The substrate thickness of the ultrasonic transducer is set in an optimum range to efficiently radiate the energy of lateral wave in the sensitive band 91 of the ultrasonic transducer to the outside so that the lateral wave is attenuated thereby reducing the artifacts in ultrasonic imaging.

Eine Sendeantenne für eine Sonaranlage zum Nachschleppen von einem Wasserfahrzeug befindet sich in einem Schleppkörper. Von der Sendeantenne wird impulsförmig Schall abgestrahlt und reflektierte Anteile von einer Schleppantenne empfangen. Zur Reduzierung von Strömungswiderstand, Gewicht und Platzbedarf für die Sendeantenne sind mehrere zylindrische Sendewandler in einem Schlauch hintereinander in ihrer Höhe in Längsrichtung des Schlauchs fluchtend aufgereiht und weisen einen Durchmesser auf, der kleiner als die Wellenlänge des abzustrahlenden Schalls ist und eine Höhe, die größer als sein Durchmesser ist. Als akustisch aktives Element enthält der Sendewandler einen Hohlzylinder (11) aus Piezokeramik und ist in Richtung seiner Höhe durch beidseitige Abdeckungen (12,13) aus Metall mechanisch vorgespannt. Der Hohlzylinder (11) ist von einer konvexen Außenschalung (14) mit einer nach außen gewölbten Wandung und von einer konkaven Innenschalung (15) mit einer in den Innenraum des Hohlzylinders (11) gewölbten Wandung umgeben, die zusammen mit den Abdeckungen einen geschlossene, den Hohlzylinder (11) in radialer Richtung mit Abstand umgebenen Hohlring aus Metall bilden. Die halbe Differenz aus äußerem und innerem Durchmesser des Hohlrings ist wesentlich kleiner als die Höhe des Hohlzylinders. Dieser Aufbau bewirkt eine Bewegungstransformation der Schwingungen des Hohlzylinders. Dieser Sendewandler ist in einer Sonaranlage vorteilhaft einsetzbar, bei der niederfrequente Schallwellen über einen breiten Frequenzbereich abgestrahlt werden und die als Empfangsantenne eine Schleppantenne aufweist.

PCT No. PCT/NO97/00064 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 8, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 8, 1998 PCT Filed Mar. 5, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO97/41454 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 6, 1997There is provided an acoustic source especially for use in seismic studies at sea. The acoustic source has a longitudinal axis and sound emitting surfaces adapted to be put into sound emitting movements towards and away from each other by use of a drive unit. The sound emitting surfaces comprise two curved plate members having upper and lower ends essentially symmetrically positioned in relation to the longitudinal axis of the acoustic source, and forming a convex cross section with their respective upper and lower edges converging towards each other. The upper and lower edges of the sound emitting surfaces, respectively, are connected to each other with two corresponding side elements, the side elements each being connected to at least one hinge stretching along at least a part of the length of the source. The acoustic source further comprises a rigid frame for supporting the drive unit and comprising at least two rigid slide rods slidingly attached to the side elements with slide bearings for permitting relative axial movement of the slide rods with respect to the side elements. Hinges connected to the side elements provide a direct connection between the upper and lower edges, respectively, of the sound emitting surfaces.
