Joseph Applied Research Laboratories and Department of Mechanical Engineering The University of Texas at Austin http://www.arlut.utexas.edu/ http://www.me.utexas.edu/ Piezoelectric transducers with thin-shelled cylindrical geometry are often used to radiate axisymmetric acoustic fields underwater.  This is achieved by generating a uniform electric field across the thickness…
