ABSTRACT:
A directional flextensional transducer including a transducer shell capable of operation in odd and even drive modes and a transduction drive bar or the like. The transduction drive bar is excited in an even mode to impart extensional motion thereto and is simultaneously excited in an odd mode to impart inextensional motion thereto. The combined excitation causes the flextensional transducer shell to move unidirectionally.
