Energy deposition via laser-induced breakdown (LIB) in gases or other media and its
accompanying secondary light and sound radiative processes are nowadays increasingly …

Laser-plasma sound sources are increasingly utilized in technological and scientific
applications as attractive alternatives to conventional electromechanical or piezoelectric …

Various indexes have been used to assess the ripeness of fruit, including peel color and
firmness because added value is given to fruit when grade selection is determined …

This paper proposes a non-contact and non-destructive method to generate Lamb waves
against a target structure using the impulse excitation force generated by laser-induced …

This work presents a novel laser-based optoacoustic transducer capable of reproducing
controlled and continuous sound of arbitrary complexity in the air or on solid targets. Light-to …

Laser-induced breakdown in ambient air by short optical pulses is accompanied by light and
sound emission from the excited volume. In this work, these secondary radiative phenomena …

Plasma filaments in air induced by femtosecond laser pulses lead to the generation of strong
shock waves. This letter presents a systematic study, both experimental and theoretical, of …

Frequency response functions (FRFs) are generally measured by investigating the input–
output relationship of a target structure. An input is applied to the target structure and the …

In this work, a novel optoacoustic transducer prototype capable of reproducing continuous
sound waves from single or multi-bit ΣΑ digital audio streams is presented. The prototype is …

The characteristics of using a laser-induced spark as a monopole source in scale model
measurements were assessed by comparison with an electric spark and a miniature …
