Abstract
Wave propagation in chain-like materials has been studied previously at low frequencies. The present study has generated these waves at higher frequencies with components >200 kHz, using chains of 1 mm diameter spheres. Resonant ultrasonic horns at 73 kHz have been used as sources of narrowband excitation, which transform into a train of broadband impulses that have the characteristics of solitary waves. These have potential applications in biomedical ultrasound as high amplitude, wide bandwidth impulses.
