Designing for the effective use of ultrasonic energy requires an understanding of the basic principles of wave propagation and associated phenomena. Because of their importance in the applications of ultrasonics, these principles are presented in some detail. This chapter is devoted to describing these phenomena. The succeeding chapter is devoted to derivations and solutions of those equations, which describe propagation characteristics of various wave types and which are used in ultrasonic system designs and analyses. Chapter 4 includes equations and procedures for designing certain components, particularly solid horns, or mechanical amplifiers, for high-intensity ...
