Physical Acoustics

• Modelling of bounded acoustic beams using theoretical methods developped in our group:
  • Inhomogeneous plane waves 
  • Mode Theory

• Reflection and transmission of  bounded beams on multilayered media, rough surfaces, inclusions, coatings,... at critical incidence angles
  of the plate.

• Airborne ultrasonic generation and acousto-optic detection of airy leaky Lamb waves in plates. Applications towards NDT.
