Ultrasonics is the only internationally established journal which covers the entire field of ultrasound research and technology
and all its many applications. Ultrasonics contains a variety of sections to keep readers fully informed and up-to-date on the
whole spectrum of research and development throughout the world. Papers are of exceptional quality and of relevance to both academia
and industry.
As well as top quality original research papers and review articles by world renowned experts, Ultrasonics also
regularly features research notes, short communications, a calendar of forthcoming events and selected papers of ultrasonics conferences.
The
journal covers:
• Physics of ultrasound - Acousto-optics; Ultrasonic visualization; Ultrasonic imaging; Acousto-electric devices,
SAW; Acoustic microscopy; Acoustic emission; Ultrasonic wave propagation; Application of lasers to ultrasonics; Physical acoustics (solids;
liquids and gases); Material interactions, characterization and scatttering; Modelling of wave propagation and scattering.
• Non-linear
ultrasound - Finite-amplitude ultrasonic waves; Parameters of non-linearity; Parametric arrays; Ultrasound cavitation and bubble dynamics;
Ultrasonically produced streaming and radiation pressure.
• Medical, biological and chemical ultrasound - Ultrasonic characterization
of biological media; Scattering and absorption in biological materials; Instrumentation; Diagnostic, therapeutic and surgical ultrasound.
•
Underwater acoustics - Reflection, refraction, diffraction, interference, scattering and reverbration, radiation from objects vibrating
under water; Underwater communication: sonars and hydrophones.
• High power sonics - Industrial processes utilizing high power
sonics such as welding, wire drawing, filtering, drilling, cutting, cleaning, emulsification, atomization; Microstructure effects; Heat
generation; Non-linear elastic waves in solids.
• Ultrasonic NDT Research - Defect location and characterization in metals, ceramics,
and composites; Materials characterization; Fatigue damage: A-, B-, C- and P-scans; Continuous wave resonance; Guided wave modes: Instrumentation.
