Continuous wave mode locking for the determination of the acoustic nonlinearity parameter B/A

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The acoustic nonlinearity parameter B/A of the nonlinearity of the equation of state for a fluid. Its significance can be found in numerous fields including shockwaves, bio-chemistry and medicine. Recent studies in the field of biomedical ultrasound have necessitated a simple and accurate means of measuring B/A in vitro.
