EAA Technical Committee Ultrasound
EAA TC-ULT
The EAA Technical Committee on Ultrasound will provide all colleagues in Ultrasound an information platform about new activities, research results, papers, books, congresses, projects, workshops, etc. A major task of the TC should be to stimulate joint activities and mutual cooperations between researchers worldwide to initiate common projects in research, development and education, and to help in organizing structured sessions in Ultrasound for congresses.
The web page of the EAA will serve as a convenient tool for exchanging such information and for establishing contacts.
The Technical Committee was formed on the 16th September 2002, at the occasion of the FORUM ACUSTICUM SEVILLA 2002. It is open to all colleagues in the field of Ultrasound worldwide.
The second meeting of the TC Ultrasound was held in Budapest, August, 29th 2005 at the occasion of the Forum Acusticum.
Due to the coincidence in time of this event with the World Congress on Ultrasound - Ultrasonics International 05 (WCU-UI05) in Beijing, only a small number of ultrasonics people attended Budapest Conference. The meeting was coordinated by Dr. S. Radel on behalf of the TC Ultrasound Chairman, Prof. J. A. Gallego-Juárez who was unable to be present.
Dr. Radel reported about the last ultrasonic events together with some information regarding the newly formed Alps-Adria Acoustic Association which includes Slovenia, Croatia and Austria. Dr. Francine Luppe from Le Havre, France, presented her group (GAPSUS) working on Physical Acoustics, Underwater Acoustics and Ultrasound. Dr. Luppe provided a list of French laboratories doing research in the area of ultrasound. It was proposed to provide a list of courses regarding ultrasound topics offered within the EAA.
