Differential Equations and Nonlinear Analysis Seminar: Barbara Kaltenbacher, University of Klagenfurt, Some Asymptotics of Equations in Nonlinear Acoustics
ZoomHigh intensity (focused) ultrasound HIFU is used in numerous medical and industrial applications ranging from lithotripsy and thermotherapy via ultrasound cleaning and welding to sonochemistry. The relatively high amplitudes arising in these applications necessitate modeling of sound propagation via nonlinear wave equations and in this talk we will first of all dwell on this modeling aspect. Then…
