2022 IEEE UFFC School on Waves and Transducers

AboutFields, Waves and Electromagnetics; General Topics for Engineers
Keywords:waves and transducers,
Scope:Acoustical imaging is based on two fundamental pillars: waves and transducers. The waves are essential to probe the interior of the human body, a metal structure or the earth whereas the transducers are essential to generate and receive the acoustic waves. This topical school is built around those two pillars. The lectures will be taught in English at an advanced physics and engineering level. They will cover topics related to wave propagation (ranging from acoustic field equations to full-wave form inversion), and materials and transducers (ranging from piezo-ceramics and piezo-crystals through to miniaturized high-frequency matrix transducers for integration with electronics). By combining theory with simple hands-on practical work using computers, instrumentation and piezoelectric materials, the students will gain significant understanding about the foundations of medical ultrasound and other related applications.
