Existing solutions for impeding three-dimensional (3D) wave propagation largely rest on high-volume fractions of mass inclusions that induce and tailor negative effective density-based local resonances. This study introduces a class of elastic metamaterials that achieve low-frequency band gaps with a volume fraction as low as 3% (mass density as low as $0.034\phantom{\rule{0.1em}{0ex}}\mathrm{g}/{\mathrm{cm}}^{3}$). The working of the proposed design hinges on a 3D trampolinelike mode behavior that gives rise to wide, omnidirectional, and low-frequency band gaps for elastic waves despite very low-mass densities. Such a 3D trampoline effect is derived from a network of overhanging nodal microarchitectures that act as locally resonating elements, which give rise to band gaps at low frequencies. The dynamic effective properties of the metamaterial are numerically examined, which reveal that the band gap associated with the trampoline effect is resulted from a negative effective modulus coupled with a near-zero yet positive effective density. The experimental characterization is then made possible by fabricating the metamaterial via a light-based printing system that is capable of realizing microarchitectures with overhanging microfeatures. This design strategy could be useful to applications where simultaneous light weight and vibration control is desired.}, number={2}, journal={PHYSICAL REVIEW APPLIED}, author={Gerard, Nikhil Jrk and Oudich, Mourad and Xu, Zhenpeng and Yao, Desheng and Cui, Huachen and Naify, Christina J. and Ikei, Alec and Rohde, Charles A. and Zheng, Xiaoyu and Jing, Yun}, year={2021}, month={Aug} } @article{li_gu_vu_sankin_zhong_yao_jing_2021, title={Time-Resolved Passive Cavitation Mapping Using the Transient Angular Spectrum Approach}, volume={68}, ISSN={["1525-8955"]}, DOI={10.1109/TUFFC.2021.3062357}, abstractNote={Passive cavitation mapping (PCM), which generates images using bubble acoustic emission signals, has been increasingly used for monitoring and guiding focused ultrasound surgery (FUS). PCM can be used as an adjunct to magnetic resonance imaging to provide crucial information on the safety and efficacy of FUS. The most widely used algorithm for PCM is delay-and-sum (DAS). One of the major limitations of DAS is its suboptimal computational efficiency. Although frequency-domain DAS can partially resolve this issue, such an algorithm is not suitable for imaging the evolution of bubble activity in real time and for cases in which cavitation events occur asynchronously. This study investigates a transient angular spectrum (AS) approach for PCM. The working principle of this approach is to backpropagate the received signal to the domain of interest and reconstruct the spatial–temporal wavefield encoded with the bubble location and collapse time. The transient AS approach is validated using an in silico model and water bath experiments. It is found that the transient AS approach yields similar results to DAS, but it is one order of magnitude faster.

Realizing arbitrary features is compelling but is inherently limited by process and material support constraints. Here we present a novel light-based additive manufacturing approach capable of printing arbitrary micro-architectures comprising a large array of internally suspended features, large span overhang, and high aspect ratio struts. This method eliminates the need for manual removal of internal supports and enables a suite of multi-functional metamaterials with a range of designed properties, including wide bandgaps for elastic waves at low frequency, switchable wave transmissions, and products requiring no post support removal.

Similarly, the valley Hall (VH) effect is also observed in acoustic systems and provides a pair of valley vortex states with opposite chirality. These valley vortex states can similarly form topologically protected edge states and, in turn, realize robust one-way propagation.

This yields an alternative therapy to the use of thrombolytic drugs in the treatment of ischemic stroke. HIFU treatment, used in conjunction with microbubbles (MBs) in the fluid stream, serves to augment the dissipation of the blood clot. In this study, using an in vitro approach, we implement a flow system to simulate the dynamic dispersion of blood clots using single-frequency focused ultrasound (SFFU) and dual-frequency focused ultrasound (DFFU). The effects of permutations of acoustic power and driving frequency (SFFU vs. DFFU) on the rate of disintegration and site-specific lytic action are quantified under the influence of fluid akin to that in a blood vessel, for specific microbubble concentrations. It is found that dual-frequency excitation in general produces a faster rate of clot dissipation in comparison to single-frequency excitation, and this observation is corroborated by cavitation signal detection. Our observations indicate that accelerated thrombolysis may be realized by the inertial cavitation threshold of DFFU being lower than that of SFFU. Furthermore, the thrombolytic effect with variance in microbubble concentration is studied for a fixed acoustic power. The efficacy of DFFU is not found to vary appreciably with an increase in microbubble concentration from 108 MBs/ml to 109 MBs/ml, possibly due to acoustic shadowing induced at increased concentrations.}, number={8}, journal={JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS}, author={Suo, Dingjie and Govind, Bala and Gu, Juanjuan and Dayton, Paul A. and Jing, Yun}, year={2019}, month={Feb} } @article{wang_fang_mao_jing_li_2019, title={Extremely Asymmetrical Acoustic Metasurface Mirror at the Exceptional Point}, volume={123}, ISSN={["1079-7114"]}, DOI={10.1103/PhysRevLett.123.214302}, abstractNote={Previous research has attempted to minimize the influence of loss in reflection- and transmission-type acoustic metasurfaces.

It is shown that this method is accurate for cases with small variation of sound speed. A 2-D case is further studied with focused ultrasound beams to validate the application of the method in the medical field. Results from the MATLAB toolbox k-Wave are used as the benchmark. Normalized root-mean-square (rms) error estimated at the focus of the transducer is 0.0133 when the coarsest mesh (1/3 of the wavelength) is used in the MDM.

Notably, the sound transmission loss of glass-fiber felts with similar areal density and thickness favors macro-layer structures over micro-layer structures. A simple model is established to explain this phenomenon.

In this study, multi-frequency acoustic waves at MHz range (near 1.5 MHz) were introduced as HIFU excitations to reduce the required power for treatment as well as the treatment time. In vitro bovine blood clots weighing around 150 mg were treated by single-frequency and multi-frequency HIFU. The pulse length was 2 ms for all experiments except the ones where the duty cycle was changed. It was found that dual-frequency thrombolysis efficiency was statistically better than single-frequency under the same acoustic power and excitation condition. When varying the acoustic power but fixing the duty cycle at 5%, it was found that dual-frequency ultrasound can save almost 30% power in order to achieve the same thrombolysis efficiency. In the experiment where the duty cycle was increased from 0.5% to 10%, it was shown that dual-frequency ultrasound can achieve the same thrombolysis efficiency with only half of the duty cycle of single-frequency. Dual-frequency ultrasound could also accelerate the thrombolysis by a factor of 2–4 as demonstrated in this study. No significant differences were found between dual-frequencies with different frequency differences (0.025, 0.05, and 0.1 MHz) and between dual-frequency and triple-frequency. The measured cavitation doses of dual-frequency and triple-frequency excitations were at about the same level but both were significantly higher than that of single-frequency.}, number={18}, journal={PHYSICS IN MEDICINE AND BIOLOGY}, author={Suo, Dingjie and Guo, Sijia and Lin, Weili and Jiang, Xiaoning and Jing, Yun}, year={2015}, month={Sep}, pages={7403–7418} } @article{jing_2014, title={A Wave-Vector-Frequency-Domain Method for Linear/nonlinear Wave Modeling in Heterogeneous Media}, ISSN={["1948-5719"]}, DOI={10.1109/ultsym.2014.0038}, abstractNote={In this paper, we will present a modified wave-vector-frequency-domain method for predicting linear/nonlinear wave propagation in arbitrarily heterogeneous media.

The proposed quasi two-dimensional (2D), nonresonant CMM consists of unit cells formed by membranes and side branches with open ends. Simultaneously, anisotropic and negative density is achieved by assigning membranes facing each direction (x and y directions) different thicknesses, while the compressibility is tuned by the side branches. Numerical examples demonstrate that the CMM, when placed adjacent to a strongly aberrating layer, could acoustically cancel out that aberrating layer. This leads to dramatically reduced acoustic field distortion and enhanced sound transmission, therefore virtually removing the layer in a noninvasive manner. In the example where a focused beam is studied, using the CMM, the acoustic intensity at the focus is increased from 28% to 88% of the intensity in the control case (in the absence of the aberrating layer and the CMM). The proposed acoustic CMM has a wide realm of potential applications, such as cloaking, all-angle antireflection layers, ultrasound imaging, detection, and treatment through aberrating layers.}, number={4}, journal={PHYSICAL REVIEW X}, author={Shen, Chen and Xu, Jun and Fang, Nicholas X. and Jing, Yun}, year={2014}, month={Nov} } @article{wang_yuan_jiang_jing_wang_2014, title={Disruption of microalgal cells using high-frequency focused ultrasound}, volume={153}, ISSN={["1873-2976"]}, DOI={10.1016/j.biortech.2013.11.054}, abstractNote={The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of high-frequency focused ultrasound (HFFU) in microalgal cell disruption.

The results demonstrated that HFFU was effective in the disruption of microalgal cells, indicated by significantly increased lipid fluorescence density, the decrease of cell sizes, and the increase of chlorophyll a fluorescence density after treatments. Compared with LFNFU, HFFU treatment was more energy efficient. The combination of high and low frequency treatments was found to be even more effective than single frequency treatment at the same processing time, indicating that frequency played a critical role in cell disruption.

In the experiments, the temperature was recorded as chicken breast tissue was heated by single-frequency, dual-frequency, and tri-frequency HIFU configurations at controlled acoustic power and exposure time. 5% to 10% temperature rise differences were observed between single- and multi-frequency modes, indicating that multi-frequency HIFU is more effective at producing faster temperature rises.

Moreover, simulations on single-frequency and multi-frequency acoustic fields as well as bio-heating-induced temperature fields were performed.

To correct for the phase aberration from the skull, two critical steps are needed prior to brain imaging. In the first step, the skull shape and speed of sound are acquired by either CT scans or ultrasound scans. In the ultrasound scan approach, phased array and double focusing technique are utilized, which are able to estimate the thickness of the skull with a maximum error of around 10% and the average speed of sound in the skull is underestimated by less than 2%. In the second step, the fast marching method is used to compute the phase delay based on the known skull shape and sound speed from the first step, and the computation can be completed in seconds for 2D problems. The computed phase delays are then used in combination with the conventional delay-and-sum algorithm for generating B-mode images. Images of wire phantoms with CT or ultrasound scan-based phase correction are shown to have much less artifact than the ones without correction. Errors of deducing speed of sound from CT scans are also discussed regarding its effect on the transcranial ultrasound images. Assuming the speed of sound grows linearly with the density, this study shows that, the CT-based phase correction approach can provide clear images of wire phantoms even if the speed of sound is overestimated by 400 m s−1, or the linear coefficient is overestimated by 40%. While in this study, ultrasound scan-based phase correction performs almost equally well with the CT-based approach, potential problems are identified and discussed.}, number={19}, journal={PHYSICS IN MEDICINE AND BIOLOGY}, author={Wang, Tianren and Jing, Yun}, year={2013}, month={Oct}, pages={6663–6681} } @article{di_price_gu_jiang_jing_gu_2013, title={Ultrasound-Triggered Regulation of Blood Glucose Levels Using Injectable Nano-Network}, volume={3}, ISSN={2192-2640}, url={http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/ADHM.201300490}, DOI={10.1002/ADHM.201300490}, abstractNote={The integration of an injectable insulin-encapsulated nano-network with a focused ultrasound system (FUS) can remotely regulate insulin release both in vitro and in vivo.

The Westervelt equation is first transferred into k-space via Fourier transformation, and is solved by a modified wave-vector time-domain scheme. The present approach is not limited to forward propagation or parabolic approximation. One- and two-dimensional problems are investigated to verify the method by comparing results to analytic solutions and finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. It is found that to obtain accurate results in homogeneous media, the grid size can be as little as two points per wavelength, and for a moderately nonlinear problem, the Courant–Friedrichs–Lewy number can be as large as 0.4. Through comparisons with the conventional FDTD method, the k-space method for nonlinear wave propagation is shown here to be computationally more efficient and accurate. The k-space method is then employed to study three-dimensional nonlinear wave propagation through the skull, which shows that a relatively accurate focusing can be achieved in the brain at a high frequency by sending a low frequency from the transducer.
