Abstract
Torsional-mode transducers represent cylindrical rods of resonance length (normally λto/2). We distinguish two basic techniques for the excitation of torsional vibrations in cylinders:
-
1)
the application of torques from external driving sources;
-
2)
the generation of these moments in the cylinder itself by virtue of the electromechanical properties (piezoelectricity, magnetostriction, etc.) of the actual material of which the cylinder is made.
