The approach is based on a combination of numerical nonlinear optimization, which gives a systematic computational procedure for finding the voltages applied to the individual electrodes, and exploitation of the intrinsic noise, which compensates for the loss of controllability when two identical particles are exposed to identical forces. Although interesting on its own, the proposed functionality can also be seen as a preliminary achievement in a quest for a technique for separation of two particles. The approach is tested experimentally with polystyrene beads (50 microns in diameter) immersed in deionized water on a flat microelectrode array with parallel electrodes. A digital camera and a computer vision algorithm are used to measure the positions. Two distinguishing features of the proposed control strategy are that the range of motion is not limited to inter-electrode gaps and that independent manipulation of several particles simultaneously is feasible even on a simple micro-electrode array.</p> }, doi = {10.1002/elps.201400521}, author = {Zemánek, Jiří and Michálek, Tomáš and Hurák, Zdeněk} } % Optional fields: month, year @unpublished{generator_techreport, author = {Jakub Drs}, title = {64-kanálový generátor - VHDL project}, note = {Available on the Supplementary CD}, month = {march}, year = {2012} } % Optional fields: month, year @unpublished{generator_protocol, author = {Jakub Drs}, title = {64-kanálový generátor}, note = {Available on the Supplementary CD}, month = {january}, year = {2012} } @thesis{adam_thesis_2018, author = {Kollarčík, Adam}, title = {Planární akustická manipulace s kulovými objekty na pevném povrchu}, school = {Czech Technical University in Prague}, type = {Bachelor's Thesis}, year = {2018} } @book{kinsler_fundamentals_2000, edition = {4th Edition}, title = {Fundamentals of acoustics}, isbn = {0-471-84789-5}, abstract = {The classic acoustics reference!

Recent advances in acoustic levitation now allow not only suspending but also rotating and translating objects in three dimensions. Acoustic levitation is also no longer restricted to small objects and can now be employed to levitate objects larger than the acoustic wavelength. This article reviews the progress of acoustic levitation, focusing on the working mechanism of different types of acoustic levitation devices developed to date. We start with a brief review of the theory. Then, we review the acoustic levitation methods to suspend objects at fixed positions, followed by the techniques that allow the manipulation of objects.

By suitably designing the wave field, remote tweezers are produced that stably levitate particles in the air without any mechanical contact forces. Recent works have revealed that holographic traps can levitate particles even with a single-sided wave source. However, the levitatable objects in the previous studies were limited to particles smaller than the wavelength, or flat parts placed near a rigid wall. Here, we achieve a stable levitation of a macroscopic rigid body by a holographic design of acoustic field without any dynamic control. The levitator models the acoustic radiation force and torque applied to a rigid body by discretising the body's surface, as well as the acoustic wave sources, and optimizes the acoustic field on the body surface to achieve the Lyapunov stability so that the field can properly respond to the fluctuation of the body position and rotation. In an experiment, a 40 {kHz} (8.5 mm wavelength) ultrasonic phased array levitated a polystyrene sphere and a regular octahedron with a size of {\textasciitilde}50 mm located 200 mm away from acoustic elements in the air. This method not only expands the variety of levitatable objects but also contributes to microscopic contexts, such as in-vivo micromachines, since shorter-wavelength ultrasound than the size of target objects can be used to achieve higher controllability and stability.}, journaltitle = {{arXiv}:1708.05988 [physics]}, author = {Inoue, Seki and Mogami, Shinichi and Ichiyama, Tomohiro and Noda, Akihito and Makino, Yasutoshi and Shinoda, Hiroyuki}, urldate = {2018-03-03}, date = {2017-08-20}, eprinttype = {arxiv}, eprint = {1708.05988}, keywords = {G.1.7, J.2, Physics - Applied Physics}, file = {arXiv\:1708.05988 PDF:C\:\\Users\\Josef\\Zotero\\storage\\A7RURMAS\\Inoue et al. - 2017 - Acoustic Macroscopic Rigid Body Levitation by Resp.pdf:application/pdf;arXiv.org Snapshot:C\:\\Users\\Josef\\Zotero\\storage\\86AWHITN\\1708.html:text/html} } @article{courtney_independent_2014, title = {Independent trapping and manipulation of microparticles using dexterous acoustic tweezers}, volume = {104}, issn = {0003-6951}, url = {http://aip.scitation.org/doi/10.1063/1.4870489}, doi = {10.1063/1.4870489}, abstract = {An electronically controlled acoustic tweezer was used to demonstrate two acoustic manipulation phenomena: superposition of Bessel functions to allow independent manipulation of multiple particles and the use of higher-order Bessel functions to trap particles in larger regions than is possible with first-order traps.

In the audible range of acoustic frequencies, it is possible to devise, in a number of ways, means of measuring pressure amplitudes in sound waves as first order effects. At supersonic frequencies, however, these methods are no longer serviceable. When the dimensions of resonators of diaphragms become comparable with the wave-length, the physical effects which enable the pressure amplitude to be measured involve intractable diffraction problems, while the extremely high frequencies and small amplitudes involved make the employment of stroboscopic methods of observation extremely difficult. It has been shown, however, that at supersonic frequencies the acoustic radiation pressures on spheres and discs become sufficiently large to be measured easily, at any rate, in liquids. The mean pressure is generally assumed to be proportional to the energy density in the neighbourhood of the obstacle, and on this basis relative measurements can be made, for instance, in the radiation field of a supersonic oscillator. Such formulæ may be obtained without restriction as to wave-length, for spheres in plane progressive and stationary radiation fields, and the magnitude of the pressure is found to be of entirely different orders of magnitude in the two cases.}, pages = {212--240}, number = {861}, journaltitle = {Proceedings of the Royal Society London A}, shortjournal = {Proc.

A typical acoustic levitator consists of an ultrasonic transducer and a reflector. The matrix method is used to determine the potential for acoustic radiation force that acts on a small sphere in the standing wave field produced by the levitator. The method is based on the Rayleigh integral and it takes into account the multiple reflections that occur between the transducer and the reflector. The potential for acoustic radiation force obtained by the matrix method is validated by comparing the matrix method results with those obtained by the finite element method when using an axisymmetric model of a single-axis acoustic levitator. After validation, the method is applied in the simulation of a noncontact manipulation system consisting of two 37.9-{kHz} Langevin-type transducers and a plane reflector. The manipulation system allows control of the horizontal position of a small levitated sphere from -6 mm to 6 mm, which is done by changing the phase difference between the two transducers. The horizontal position of the sphere predicted by the matrix method agrees with the horizontal positions measured experimentally with a charge-coupled device camera.

It is found that both in air and in water, for a particle with a given shape, the trapping capability is different at different orientations; for some commonly shaped particles, such as rectangular cuboid, cylinder, cone, cube, sphere, and hollow cylinder; the trapping capability for each particle shape at its best trapping orientation decreases in the listed sequence of shapes.}, pages = {1443--1450}, number = {6}, journaltitle = {{IEEE} Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics, and Frequency Control}, author = {Liu, Yanyan and Hu, Junhui and Zhao, Chunsheng}, date = {2010-06}, keywords = {acoustic radiation force, finite element analysis, finite element method, Finite element methods, acoustic field, acoustic resonance, acoustic trapping, Al, aluminium, clay, clay particles, metal strips, particle orientation, particle size, Shape, sound field, strips, Strips, ultrasonic vibration, ultrasonic waves}, file = {IEEE Xplore Abstract Record:C\:\\Users\\Josef\\Zotero\\storage\\WU4MYRRB\\5480186.html:text/html;IEEE Xplore Full Text PDF:C\:\\Users\\Josef\\Zotero\\storage\\AI7BYUM9\\Liu et al. - 2010 - Dependence of acoustic trapping capability on the .pdf:application/pdf} } @article{courtney_dexterous_2013, title = {Dexterous manipulation of microparticles using Bessel-function acoustic pressure fields}, volume = {102}, issn = {0003-6951}, url = {http://aip.scitation.org/doi/abs/10.1063/1.4798584}, doi = {10.1063/1.4798584}, pages = {123508}, number = {12}, journaltitle = {Applied Physics Letters}, shortjournal = {Appl.

Our approach makes available many expressions, such as the expression by materials and non-digital appearance. These kinds of expressions are used in many applications, and we aim to combine them with digital controllability.

Instead, the sound energy flows through a three-dimensional curved shell in air leaving a close-to-zero pressure region in the middle, exhibiting the capability of circumventing obstacles.

The fluid–particle motion is resolved by the method of distributed Lagrange multipliers and the interface is moved by the method of level sets. The present work fills a gap since there are no other theoretical methods available to describe the nonlinear fluid dynamics of capillary attraction.Two different cases of constrained motions of floating particles are studied here. In the first case, we study motions of floating spheres under the constraint that the contact angle is fixed by the Young–Dupr´e law; the contact line must move when the contact angle is fixed. In the second case, we study motions of disks (short cylinders) with flat ends in which the contact line is pinned at the sharp edge of the disk; the contact angle must change when the disks move and this angle can change within the limits specified by the Gibbs extension to the Young–Dupré law. The fact that sharp edged particles cling to interfaces independent of particle wettability is not fully appreciated and needs study.The numerical scheme presented here is at present the only one which can move floating particles in direct simulation. We simulate the evolution of single heavier-than-liquid spheres and disks to their equilibrium depth and the evolution to clusters of two and fours spheres and two disks under lateral forces, collectively called capillary attraction.

The method is based on the measurement of the particle velocity V, under the action of a well-defined lateral capillary force F. The capillary force is created by controlled deformation of the water surface by means of a Teflon barrier whose vertical position can be precisely adjusted. The magnitude of the force is calculated by means of the theory of capillary interaction between a sphere and a vertical wall (Kralchevsky et al., J. Colloid Interface Sci. 167, 47, 1994). The drag coefficient is calculated from the ratio β = F/V at small Reynolds numbers. The dependence of the drag coefficient on the particle size and the three-phase contact angle is determined. For small spheres, which do not create substantial deformation of the fluid interface, β is always smaller than the Stokes coefficient, βs - 6 πηa (η is the water viscosity and a is the particle radius). For large spheres, however, β can be greater than βs. This higher hydrodynamic resistance can be explained by the presence of a curved meniscus around heavier particles. The measured values of β are compared with theoretical calculations and very good agreement is reached.

A floating marble can easily move across water surface due to the low friction, allowing for the transport of aqueous solutions with minimal energy input. However, the motion of a floating marble has yet to be systematically characterised due to the lack of insight into key parameters such as the coefficient of friction between the floating marble and the carrier liquid. We measured the coefficient of friction of a small floating marble using a novel experimental setup that exploits the non-wetting properties of a liquid marble. A floating liquid marble pair containing a minute amount magnetite particles were immobilised and then released in a controlled manner using permanent magnets. The capillarity-driven motion was analysed to determine the coefficient of friction of the liquid marbles. The “capillary charge” model was used to fit the experimental results. We varied the marble content and carrier liquid to establish a relationship between the friction correction factor and the meniscus angle.}, pages = {38346}, journaltitle = {Scientific Reports}, author = {Ooi, Chin Hong and Nguyen, Anh Van and Evans, Geoffrey M. and Dao, Dzung Viet and Nguyen, Nam-Trung}, urldate = {2018-04-01}, date = {2016-12-02}, langid = {english}, file = {Full Text PDF:C\:\\Users\\Josef\\Zotero\\storage\\YXH2CTUJ\\Ooi et al. - 2016 - Measuring the Coefficient of Friction of a Small F.pdf:application/pdf;Snapshot:C\:\\Users\\Josef\\Zotero\\storage\\VHKPVWJN\\srep38346.html:text/html} } @article{f.r.s_xxxiv._1902, title = {{XXXIV}.

The acoustic levitation of an expanded polystyrene sphere of 50 mm in diameter, corresponding to 3.6 times the wavelength, is achieved by using three 25 {kHz} ultrasonic transducers arranged in a tripod fashion. In this configuration, a standing wave is created between the transducers and the sphere. The axial acoustic radiation force generated by each transducer on the sphere was modeled numerically as a function of the distance between the sphere and the transducer. The theoretical acoustic radiation force was verified experimentally in a setup consisting of an electronic scale and an ultrasonic transducer mounted on a motorized linear stage. The comparison between the numerical and experimental acoustic radiation forces presents a good agreement.}, pages = {044101}, journaltitle = {Applied Physics Letters}, shortjournal = {Applied Physics Letters}, author = {Andrade, Marco A.

A one-dimensional model of a piezo-device including the fluid-loading on one side and a backside support is introduced. This model allows the calculation of the transmitted wave as a function of the applied electric voltage and the incident wave. In addition, when an electrical impedance is connected to the piezo-device, the reflection coefficient can be varied in amplitude and phase, so that the parameters of the reflected wave can be controlled completely. The resonator itself, consisting of a piezo-device on each end and the fluid between, is included in the model.

This approach applies the principles of acoustic radiation force, whereby the non-linear effects of sound produce forces on the skin which are strong enough to generate tactile sensations. This mid-air haptic feedback eliminates the need for any attachment of actuators or contact with physical devices. The user perceives a discernible haptic shape when the corresponding acoustic interference pattern is generated above a precisely controlled two-dimensional phased array of ultrasound transducers. In this paper, we outline our algorithm for controlling the volumetric distribution of the acoustic radiation force field in the form of a three-dimensional shape. We demonstrate how we create this acoustic radiation force field and how we interact with it. We then describe our implementation of the system and provide evidence from both visual and technical evaluations of its ability to render different shapes. We conclude with a subjective user evaluation to examine users' performance for different shapes.}, pages = {181:1--181:10}, number = {6}, journaltitle = {{ACM} Trans.
