Modelling of an ultrasonic transducer's transient acoustic field

This work extends modelling of high frequency electric-acoustic transducers beyond current limiting approximations, which is of interest to such applications as ultrasonic imaging, testing, tomography etc. The developed methodology includes transient modelling of the acoustic potential field with dynamic Green?s functions and linear formulation of wave propagation in the moving reference frame. A finite difference model is determined to achieve fast numerical implementation. Developed is also experimental methodology for impulse response measurements, offering modifications of the inverse Wiener filter and introducing novel transducer equalisation increasing signal bandwidth. / thesis (PhD)--University of South Australia, 2001.
