Abstract
By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Robotics & Machine Learning DailyNews Daily News-Fresh data on artificial intelligence are presented in a new report. According to newsreporting originating from Zhej iang University by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, "Ultrasoundtechnolog y has been recognized as the mainstream approach for the identification of gas-l iquid two-phaseflow patterns, which holds great value in engineering domain."Funders for this research include National Natural Science Foundation of China.Our news journalists obtained a quote from the research from Zhejiang University : "However, commercialrigid probes are bulky, limiting their adaptability to cu rved surfaces. Here, we propose a strategyfor autonomous identification of flow patterns based on flexible ultrasound array and machine learning.The array fea tures high-performance 1-3 piezoelectric composite material, stretchable serpent ine wires,soft Eco-flex layers and a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) adhesive layer . The resulting ultrasound arrayexhibits excellent electromechanical characteri stics and offers a large stretchability for an intimate interfacialcontact to c urved surface without the need of ultrasound coupling agents. We demonstrated th atthe flexible ultrasound array combined with machine learning can accurately i dentify gas-liquid two-phaseflow patterns, in a circular pipeline."
