Producing acoustic ‘Frozen Waves’: Simulated experiments with diffraction/attenuation resistant beams in lossy media

Abstract: The so-called Localized Waves (LW), and the "Frozen Waves" (FW), have raised significant attention in the areas of Optics and Ultrasound, because of their surprising energy localization properties. The LWs resist the effects of diffraction for large distances, and possess an interesting self-reconstruction -self-healing- property (after obstacles with size smaller than the antenna's); while the FWs, a sub-class of LWs, offer the possibility of arbitrarily modeling the longitudinal field intensity pattern insid… Show more

“…It is a much more powerful method because, we repeat, it allows us to choose multiple locations (spatial ranges) of space/time focalization, where the pulse intensities also can be chosen a priori. This technique can be seen as a pulsed version of the Frozen Wave method [26][27][28][29][30][31] (originally developed for beams) and it can be implemented for subluminal, luminal and superluminal pulsed solutions. It is important to note that within all focal lines, the resulting pulses will be nondiffracting.…”

“…Happily enough we can always obtain ultrasonic beams, resisting for long distances to both diffraction and attenuation, by generalizing the method of ours for FWs [20,4,2] (our standard method for FWs is briefly summarized in an Appendix, for possible convenience of the reader).…”

“…25 -Our theoretical method [20,4,2] allows constructing an acoustic Frozen Waves with the characteristics specified in the Example above. This is shown in the present Figure . It is rather encouraging the theoretical possibility of obtaining ultrasonic beams, resisting the effects of diffraction and attenuation for distances very much longer than the ones attained by ordinary beams [4]. But, let us repeat, the high-power needed for the desired applications, is often a serious obtacle.…”
