Offer Description

Develop signal anlysis of ultrasonic data acquired using multi-element transducers on polycrystalline metal alloy parts.

• Perform ultrasonic measurements using multi-element transducer arrays and associated multi-channel electronics.
• Analyze inter-element response matrices, known as “reflection matrices,” to extract the properties of the explored medium, such as effective velocities, crystalline anisotropy, or elastic anisotropy (texture).
• Study the impact of multiple scattering on the estimation of these properties.

This work is a continuation of a series of studies conducted at Langevin Institute on the matrix approach to multi-element ultrasound imaging.

Good knowledge of acoustics and elastic waves in anisotropic media, signal processing, and matrix theory.
