|
 | The feasibility of building small ultrasound imaging arrays with integrated electronics was explored. These arrays can be used to build laparoscopic, articulated, ultrasound imaging probes for use at forward military surgical locations or in emergency rooms and surgical suites. To achieve this goal, the critical items required are active multiplexer electronics and a multilayer interconnect means which provides for mounting and connection of 128 individual array elements to the imaging ... |

|
 | A compact subwavelength size monopole underwater sound radiator has characteristics to maximize resistive radiation impedance, minimize reactive radiation impedance, facilitate heat dissipation and minimize compensating air usage. This results in improved efficiency, bandwidth and use factor. The underwater sound radiator uses two back-to-back mounted, frustum shaped, hollow, radiating shells to achieve radiation characteristics approximating those of an equivalent sized pulsating sphere. An elliptically shaped, uniform cross-section magnetostrictive ring crossed by ... |

|
 | A detailed description is given of an acoustic emission (AE) calibration system based on the use of a helium jet. Reasons for the choice of the helium jet are given and various other simulated sources of AE are discussed in terms of their suitability for calibration of AE systems. (Author) |

|
 | A two dimensional acoustic imaging device, with electronic focusing and scanning in both directions was constructed. The device is designed to work with 2.25 MHz acoustic waves. It employs M piezoelectric elements in a transmitting transducer, which produce a beam focused and scanned in the y direction. An N element receiving transducer is used to focus and scan in the x direction. This makes it possible to obtain M by ... |

|
 | An ultrasonic nebulizer based on flowing a sample solution across the vibrating face of a piezoelectric crystal produces an aerosol useful for instrumental analytical techniques. The piezoelectric element is coated with a ceramic glaze resistant to many analytical solutions. Different and better coatings will be needed, however, for especially corrosive solutions. Ultrasonic nebulizers inherently more resistant were designed but had limited operational life and were not perfected during this study. ... |

| DC CAPACITIVE FUZING SYSTEM FOR SMALL PROJECTILES |

|
 | A study of dc capacitive fuzing schemes for small projectiles (20 and 40mm) was conducted. Due to the packaging limitations of the projectile, it was necessary to use relatively low operating voltages (200-400 volts), which limits the effective charge capacity of the probes. The conclusions drawn from this study are that standoff distances greater then the projectile length cannot be reliably attained. As a result, it was decided that further ... |
