Ultrasonic metal welding (USMW) technology receives widespread attention because of its
advantages of environmental protection, high efficiency, high welding strength, and low joint …

A three degrees of freedom (3-DOF) piezoelectric micromanipulator (PEMMR) based on
symmetric and antisymmetric bending of a cross-shaped beam is proposed in this article …

A wireless ultrasound surgical system (WUSS) with battery modules requires efficient power
consumption with appropriate cutting effects during surgical operations. Effective cutting …

Flexible robots with in-situ torsion can be used in laryngeal endoscopic surgery which can
maintain the position and approach vector of the end-effector during the operation. However …

In the field of power ultrasound, Langevin ultrasonic transducers (LUTs) usually operate at a
large displacements output power by applying high voltages. However, empirically, a LUT …

We previously conducted an empirical study on Langevin type transducers in medical use
by examining the heat effect on porcine tissue. For maximum acoustic output, the transducer …

A novel Z-shaped elastic flange structure is presented in this paper, which is used to mount
the piezoelectric ultrasonic transducer (PUTs) together with the housing and increase …

In the natural world, leaf-cutting ants cause vibrations through their mutual scraping of file-
scraper organs. In this study, we designed a Biomimetic Ultrasonic Exciter (BUE) that …

Power ultrasound is widely used in industrial production, medical equipment, aerospace,
and other fields. Currently, there are two main types of commonly used power generation …

The current deterministic optimization design method ignores uncertainties in the material
properties and potential machining error which could lead to unreliable or unstable designs …
