EFFECTS OF ULTRASOUND ON DEFORMATION CHARACTERISTICS OF STRUCTURAL METALS. PART 2. ACOUSTIC HEATING AND ZONE MELTING.

Abstract

High-intensity ultrasound at 20 kc/sec is used in studies of mechanisms of metal deformation and treatment. Quantitative details about the experimental conditions are provided in the five parts of this report: (1) modes of intense ultrasonic stress waves in rods and bars, (2) conversion of acoustic energy into heat, (3) applications of ultrasound at high strain rate tensile tests, (4) measurements of internal friction during highintensity ultrasonic radiation of metals, and (5) discussion of ultrasonic metal deformation along with a comparison between our observations and other reports on the subject of ultrasonic metal forming processes.
