Summary
In an in vitro experiment the acoustic emission characteristics of broken and intact struts on BSCC valves exhibited different frequency responses and different vibro-acoustography images. The images indicated that the vibration modes of the object could be deduced in addition to the structural integrity of the object. Structural integrity of such prostheses could be deduced using vibro-acoustography in vivo.
