Article Abstract
This study presents a non-destructive method for estimating surface acoustic wave attenuation, which is highly sensitive to microstructural features, especially at high frequencies. The method uses a single wideband dispersive interdigital transducer (IDT) that remotely emits acoustic waves at the sample's edge. Chirp compression of the temporal displacement response is achieved by correlating the excitation signal with the spatial configuration of the IDT's electrodes. This technique generates high-amplitude pulses with a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio, critical for enabling accurate attenuation estimation over a frequency range (15-70 MHz). Results from nickel and aluminum demonstrate the method's effectiveness for rapid material characterization.

An integrated miniature time-of-flight mass spectrometer (TOF-MS) system coupled with a pocket-size 3D-printed laser-induced acoustic desorption (LIAD) source is described. This 3D-printed LIAD source utilizes only a miniature deceleration motor to achieve two-dimensional motion of the target surface, simplifying the source structure and improving the long-term stability of mass spectrometry measurements. It has been successfully applied to analyze the model molecule creatinine and ingredients in an energy beverage (Red Bull), where main natural nutrients were clearly identified.

Objective: Transcranial ultrasound (US) stimulation (TUS) has emerged as a promising technique for minimally invasive, localized, deep brain stimulation. However, indirect auditory effects during neuromodulation require careful consideration, particularly in experiments with rodents. One method to prevent auditory responses involves applying tapered envelopes to US bursts.

The unified fast multipole boundary element method (FMBEM) has been adapted to treat acoustic scattering from an elastic inclusion located near to (or embedded on) the interface between two semi-infinite fluid half-spaces. The parallel broadband Helmholtz FMBEM is used to model each fluid domain, while the elastic inclusion is modelled using either the finite element method, or an analogous elastodynamic FMBEM. The boundary integral equation for each fluid half-space is formulated to account for the transmission and reflection of the incident acoustic field from the planar surface of the interface, and so only the scattered field from the elastic inclusion and/or localised surface scattering features on the interface surface are evaluated.

Upstream fish movement in the Danube River at the Iron Gate is blocked by the massive hydropower dams and ship locks, as shown by tracking six fish species (vimba bream Vimba vimba, common nase Chondrostoma nasus, barbel Barbus barbus, asp Leuciscus aspius, Pontic shad Alosa immaculata and common carp Cyprinus carpio). In the absence of effective fish passage systems, the current level of river connectivity is insufficient to support upstream movement and migration for this diverse, multispecies fish community. The tagged cyprinids displayed evidence of migratory behaviour.
