A SAW resonator based on langasite (LGS) substrate with (0, 138.5, 116.6°) cut was designed and fabricated. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the resonator has two resonance modes, one Rayleigh wave and the other leaky surface acoustic wave (LSAW). The temperature dependent resonance frequencies of both Rayleigh wave and LSAW had been studied. The results show that the turnover temperature of LSAW mode is below absolute zero, namely, the resonance frequency of LSAW changes monotonically in rather wide temperature range, such as from cryogenic to ultrahigh temperatures. Real-time temperature measurement shows that the temperature sensor based on the LSAW mode can effectively monitor the environment temperature, as the thermocouple does. Our work suggests that the LSAW temperature sensor has great application potential in aerospace field for wide temperature range sensing.

Zhu R., Hu H., Wang R., Chen H. «Reverse Design of Absorption Performance for Typical Underwater Acoustic Coatings Based on Neural Network» Акустический журнал, 70, № 4, с. pp745-758 (2024)

This paper presents a method for rapidly reverse designing the absorption performance of acoustic coatings, utilizing the principles of a concatenated deep neural network. It enables the swift acquisition of effective input parameters. By cascading a reverse neural network with pre-trained forward neural networks, a concatenated neural network is obtained. This network maps the absorption spectrum response to structural and material parameters, thereby resolving the nonuniqueness issue in traditional reverse design. The paper describes the detailed process of reverse designing the absorption performance of acoustic coatings and validates the correctness of the reverse design using finite element methods. A comparative analysis investigates the impact of different loss functions on result accuracy. The findings demonstrate that the proposed modified loss function algorithm significantly enhances precision compared to traditional direct reverse design. This advancement allows for the customization of acoustic coatings with specific acoustic properties, providing technical groundwork for vibration and noise reduction in underwater vehicles.
