Conventional perforated sheet-over-honeycomb acoustic liners have been widely used to attenuate turbofan engine noise. To dampen the broadband noise and resist the harsh service conditions with high temperature and pressure in modern turbofan engine,new acoustic liner concepts are proposed and evaluated in the latest decade. In this review,available studies regarding the recent development of liners are gathered. The paper starts with the introduction of acoustic absorption mechanism of local-reacting and extended-reacting liners. The progress of novel passive liners(e.g.,mesh-cap liner,variable-depth liner,metal foam liner,hybrid liner,etc.) is summarized. Furthermore,adaptive liners with tunable geometry dimension or bias flow are illustrated in details.Metamaterial is also mentioned as a hot candidate in the next generation of acoustic liners. Finally,this review identifies benefits and some technical challenges with the goal of unveiling the potential of novel acoustic liner technologies in aero engine.展开更多

We also show that the detection limit depends on the loss coefficient and signal-to-nosie ratio (SNR) of the overall system, rather than the circumference of the ring. For a microring resonator sensor whose Q factor is 20000, the detection limit is found to be about 10-7 with 30-dB SNR, which is in good agreement with reported experimental data. These results indicate that loss reduction is the top priority in the design and fabrication of highly sensitive microring resonator optical biosensors.展开更多

The friction term is assumed to be proportional to the flow velocity with a phase difference. The boundary absorption adopts a condition similar to the impedance condition in acoustics. In the near region a variational principle is established. In the far region the solution satisfies the Helmholtz equation. Computation of results of harbor resonance by the model show good agreement between experimental data and theoretical results.展开更多

This paper describes a structure for front end passband BAW filters manufactured using surface micromachining. Porous silicon is used as a thick sacrificial layer. The structure reduces the influence of the support film on the filter to improve the VLSI compatibility as well as the filter quality. The cross-talk between resonators with different frequencies can be dramatically reduced by using resonators with a self-supporting structure.展开更多

This model provides results of FBAR excited thickness-extensional and flexure modes, and the result of frequency dispersion is proposed in which the thicknesses and impedance of the electrodes and the piezoelectric material are taken into consideration; its further simplification shows good agreement with the modified Butterworth-Van-Dyke (MBVD) model. The displacement profile reflects the vibration stress distribution of electrode shapes and the lateral resonance effect, which depends on the axis ratio of the electrode shapes a/b. The results are consistent with the 3D finite element method modeling and laser interferometry measurement in general.展开更多

The impedance for lead-zirconate-titanate (PZT)-based FBAR was derived using the proper boundary conditions and material parameters. A method is presented to adjust the resonant frequency based on the process and material properties. Ferroelectric-based radio-frequency filters were designed using FBARs. An accurate result is given for the filter impedance which can be used for other piezoelectric devices.展开更多
