Acoustic Microscopy - Scanning Acoustic Microscopy (SAM) is a non-destructive failure analysis or inspection technique. SAM can be performed with either the Scanning Laser Acoustic Microscope (SLAM) or the C-Mode SAM (C-SAM). (University of Maryland)
Acoustic Saturation - The maximum value of acoustic pressure within an ultrasonic beam is limited by acoustic saturation. (Bioacoustic Research Lab.)
Chris Cheers' Power Ultrasonics web site - Independent guide to high power ultrasonics - with a database of industrial suppliers and descriptions of equipment and processes including ultrasonic plastic welding, ultrasonic metal welding, ultrasonic cleaning and sonochemistry.
Coxmoor books - Books about: maintenance engineering and condition monitoring information such as vibration and noise analysis, thermography, wear debris and oil analysis, corrosion, lubrication, acoustic emissions and ultrasonics, level and leakage, power, performance and efficiency, and steady state.
Ultrasound digs deep - Although ultrasound instruments have been a part of the embedded landscape for decades, designers continue to refine techniques and devise new applications. Ultrasound might fit into your next embedded design. (EDN Access--01.20.2000)
