Analysis of dynamic levitation process of the particle chain in a nonlinear standing wave field.

This research delves into the dynamic behavior of acoustic levitation of the particle chain in a nonlinear standing wave field. Experimental acoustic levitation control tests reveal bifurcation and jump phenomena during dynamic adjustments to resonant cavity height. Employing the 10-particle chain experiments and the COMSOL simulation models, the Sine-Gordon 2D vibration model is established to study the dynamic deformation process of the particle chain. The study uncovers the nonlinear interaction of particle lateral vibrations, horizontal acoustic radiation force, and conical wave fields that generate the jumping standing wave field. Notably, the fourth particle acts as a prominent jumping critical point in the secondary standing wave field, facilitating the derivation of the particle chain's nonlinear levitation dynamics. This discovery provides us with a new method to regulate the particle chain system.
