摘要 功率超声波的最初应用主要集中在超声波清洗槽，它依赖于产生惯性空化，以及在塑料和金属的连接等制造过程中结合超声波激励。自功率超声波出现的早期以来，应用数量迅速增长，并且通过表征低超声波频率振动和声学的实验技术的进步以及计算建模的进步的结合，从微焊接到超声波截骨术的多样化应用范围成为可能。本文重点介绍了功率超声波领域的一些研究，旨在利用低超声波频率高超声波振幅振动的优势。本文报告了当前的研究，并提出了最近取得重大进展的三个不同应用领域的未来机遇：金属的连接和成型、手术器械和空化室。
Abstract The first applications in power ultrasonics were largely focused on ultrasonic cleaning baths, which rely on generating inertial cavitation, and the incorporation of ultrasonic excitation in manufacturing processes such as joining of plastics and metals. Since the early days of power ultrasonics there has been a rapid growth in the number of applications, and the diversified range of applications, from microwelding to ultrasonic osteotomy, has been made possible by a combination of advances in experimental techniques for characterizing low ultrasonic frequency vibrations and acoustics, and advances in computational modelling. This article highlights just some of the research in power ultrasonics that aims to exploit the benefits of low ultrasonic frequency high ultrasonic amplitude vibrations. This article reports current research and suggests future opportunities in three different application areas that have seen significant recent advances: joining and shaping of metals, surgical devices, and cavitation cells.
