Based on the optical deflection method, the resonant characteristics of a microcantilever under various pressure have been observed at room temperature to understand the pressure-dependent dissipation effect. Especially, the quality factor of the cantilever has been measured for up to fourth harmonic mode of cantilever resonance as a function of pressure between 0.1 and 1000 Torr. By considering the intrinsic dissipation present in the system at 0.1 Torr, the pressure-dependent fluidic quality factors were determined for the multiple cantilever resonant modes. The inverse of the fluidic quality factor appears to follow two different asymptotic behaviors at high and low pressure limits, which indicates that the dynamics of the fluid, due to the oscillating cantilever, changes from Newtonian to non-Newtonian with decreasing pressure. The experimentally observed transition of the fluidic dissipation effect agrees well with the recently proposed rapidly oscillating flow model based on the Boltzmann equation, regardless of the different mode shapes.

Acoustic characterization of ultrasound contrast agents (UCAs, coated microbubbles) relies on the attenuation theory that assumes the UCAs oscillate linearly at sufficiently low excitation pressures. Effective shell parameters of the UCAs can be estimated by fitting a theoretical attenuation curve to experimentally measured attenuation data. Depending on the excitation frequency and properties of the shell, however, an UCA may oscillate nonlinearly even at sufficiently low excitation pressures, violating the assumption in the linear attenuation theory.

This study presents the fundamental equations governing the pressure dependent disipation mechanisms in the oscillations of coated bubbles. A simple generalized model (GM) for coated bubbles accounting for the effect of compressibility of the liquid is presented. The GM was then coupled with nonlinear ODEs that account for the thermal effects.

Traditionally, the acoustoelastic effect refers to the influence of stress in a solid on an elastic wave's phase velocity. Since the phase velocity can be represented by the real part of the complex wave number, a natural question arises regarding the effect of stress on the imaginary part or dissipation of the wave. In this article, the influence of pressure on the elastic wave's attenuation in polycrystalline materials is modeled.

Single-crystal diamond nanomechanical resonators are being developed for countless applications. A number of these applications require that the resonator be operated in a fluid, that is, a gas or a liquid. Here, we investigate the fluid dynamics of single-crystal diamond nanomechanical resonators in the form of nanocantilevers.
