SynopsisThe diffraction of a line source of sound by an absorbing semi-infinite half plane in the presence of a fluid flow is examined. It is found that the radiated sound intensity, in the half space in which the source is located, can be considerably reduced by a suitable choice of the absorption parameter. For subsonic flow the system exhibits no acoustic instabilities.

SYNOPSISThe diffraction of a line source by an absorbing semi-infinite plane in the presence of a subsonic fluid flow is examined. Expressions for the total far field for the leading edge (no wake present) and the trailing edge (wake present) situation are given.It is found that the presence of fluid flow attenuates the sound level in the shadow region of the absorbent screen. There is greater attenuation of the sound level in the trailing edge situation than there is for the leading edge situation.Sound level attenuation on the source side of the absorbent screen is found to depend more critically on the absorptive properties of the screen than on the fluid flow. The radiated sound intensity, in the half space in which the source is located, can be considerably reduced by a suitable choice of the absorption parameter.

Abnormal changes of the microvasculature are reported to be key evidence of the development of several critical diseases, including cancer, progressive kidney disease, and atherosclerotic plaque. Super-resolution ultrasound imaging is an emerging technology that can identify the microvasculature noninvasively, with unprecedented spatial resolution beyond the acoustic diffraction limit. Therefore, it is a promising approach for diagnosing and monitoring the development of diseases. In this review, we introduce current super-resolution ultrasound imaging approaches and their preclinical applications on different animals and disease models. Future directions and challenges to overcome for clinical translations are also discussed.
