Advances
in Ultrasound Research
Ultrasound is an
oscillating sound pressure wave with
a frequency greater than the
upper limit of the human hearing range. Ultrasound is
thus not separated from 'normal' (audible) sound based on differences in
physical properties, only the fact that humans cannot hear it. Although this
limit varies from person to person, it is approximately 20 kilohertz (20,000 hertz) in
healthy, young adults. Ultrasound devices operate with frequencies from
20 kHz up to several gigahertz.
Ultrasonics is the application of ultrasound. Ultrasound can be used for medical imaging, detection,
measurement and cleaning. At higher power levels, ultrasonics is useful for
changing the chemical properties of substances.
In this special issue, we are going to invite front-line researchers and
authors to submit original research. Authors should read
over the journal’s Authors’ Guidelines carefully before
submission,Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their
complete manuscript through the journal Paper Submission System.
According to the
following timetable:
