Summary
Using a laser doppler vibrometer, I demonstrate that the mechanical displacement is not affected by the antiresonance phenomenon of ultrasonic transducers.
In this webinar, I show experiments and talk about theory. I also talk about mechanical antiresonance.

My next webinar will be on Friday, January 5, 2023 at 11AM EST. I will cover
"How to measure the accuracy and linearity of an laser doppler vibrometer for ultrasonic transducers”
