Resumo:
Cylindrical wave propagation in elastic materials has usually been modeled with analytical approaches or with numerical methods, such as the finite element method. However, depending on the frequency, obtaining results can be a hard task, requiring high computational efforts. Within this context, some studies on acoustic energy transfer, using piezoelectric transducers, had adopted alternative methods for modeling wave propagation, by means of acoustic-electric channels. Among the available methods in the literature, the two-port network approach, derived from the electric circuit analysis, proved to be prominent. In this thesis, by using impedance analogies, this method is brought into the context of acoustic wave propagation, leading to transfer matrices based on transmission parameters, or the so-called ABCD parameters. It was verified that the same results with less computational effort were obtained. So far, this method was only developed for the plane wave propagation in elastic solids and piezoelectric materials. However, since many real applications are curved, the two-port network approach is extended for the cylindrical wave case in this work. The novel ABCD parameters are then implemented in a computational routine, modeling pulse-echo and pitch-catch tests inside cylindrical media. The validation was performed by means of a convergence analysis, varying the internal radius of the entire channel, since the new ABCD parameters showed an inverse proportionality with the radius of the layer. Furthermore, the developed method was capable of modeling a signal transmission experimental setup, coming from a cylindrical transducer submerged in a water tank, as well as modeling the transmission of the same signal through a cylindrical barrier.
