Publication: Multiscale and Multiphysics Fea Simulation and Materials Optimization for Laser Ultrasound Transducers
Abstract The relationship between the nanocomposite design and the laser ultrasound transducer (LUT) characteristics was investigated through simulations in multiple scale levels for material behavior, device response, and near-field acoustic wave propagation. First, the effects of the nanoparticle size and concentration on the effective properties of composites were quantitatively investigated with the finite element analysis…
