Abstract:
A peening technique using ultrasonic cavitation was proposed to peen the tip of deep notches. The working theory of the present peening technique for the notch tip was described and numerically demonstrated. An experiment using a deep notch shape and an ultrasonic loading with a frequency of 20kHz achieved noticeable compressive residual stresses at the notch tip.

1.5K
A household microwave and lasers are examples of standing electromagnetic waves in a cavity. When two conducting metal plates are placed parallel at the nodal planes, it creates a cavity where standing waves are formed. The cavity between the two planes is analogous to a stretched string held at the points x = 0 and x = L. Here, the distance 'L' between the two planes must be an integer multiple of half of the wavelength. The wavelengths that satisfy this condition are given by:

Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.
