MRI-compatibility enhancements to USM performance for interventional devices in MR environments
… necessary. The behaviour of an ultrasonic motor (USM), the most common MRI-safe actuator, in a high-field (3T) MRI scanner was investigated. To characterize the axial force generated by the USM, a generic MRI-compatible force sensor (MCFS) was developed. USM effects on MCFS performance were …

Analysis of a Rotary Ultrasonic Motor for Application in Force-Feel Systems
… a rotary traveling wave-type ultrasonic motor (USM) used to supply feedback forces in force-feel systems is carried out. Prior to simulation, the subsystems and contact mechanics needed to define the motor's equations of motion are discussed along with the pitfalls of modeling a USM. A …

Dual-Use Strain Sensors for Simultaneous Strain Measurement and Acoustic Source Location
… are required. The ultrathin silicon membrane (USM) sensor developed by NanoSonic Inc. is a piezoresistive sensor, incorporating the best aspects of a conventional strain gauge and ultrasonic transducer. The sensor can measure both the strain of a component, as well as any acoustic emission that …

Dual-Use Strain Sensors for Acoustic Emission and Quasi-Static Bending Measurements
… and SHM. The ultrathin silicon membrane-based (USM) strain sensor's ability to capture an AE signal is demonstrated by a Hsu-Nielsen source and shows comparable frequency content to a commercial piezoceramic ultrasonic transducer. To the knowledge of the authors, this makes the USM strain sensor …

Design of a Linear Ultrasonic Piezoelectric Motor
<p>A new geometrically unique ultrasonic motor (USM) was designed using finite element modeling (FEM). A USM operates by vibrating a drive tip in an elliptical motion while it is in periodic contact with a driven surface. Piezoelectric elements are used to create the elliptical motions and are …
