International Symposium on Mechanical Waves in Solids

项目摘要- CMS 0540024拟议的国际研讨会的目的是召集一个固体中机械波的国际专家组，介绍和讨论不同领域的最新研究和发展，目的是通过交流和交流思想、方法、理论以及实验和计算技术。两大类波问题将受到关注：正问题和逆问题。在正问题中，已知结构、材料组成和外部激励，必须确定物体的响应。在反问题中，外部激励、响应以及可能的结构都是已知的，而材料的组成（机械性能、缺陷）必须确定。反问题的解对于测量确定材料的状态是必不可少的，但是如果没有对正问题的很好的理解，任何反问题都是不可解的。因此，正问题和反问题都应该考虑。研讨会将汇集来自不同领域的国际工作者，通过演讲、随后的讨论和评论，在一个相对较小的非正式会议上交流信息。另一个目标是引进年轻的研究人员，他们可能还没有取得国际声誉，但他们将从与更有经验的同事的互动中受益匪浅。

Project Summary - CMS 0540024The object of the proposed International Symposium is to bring together aninternational group of experts on mechanical waves in solids to present and discuss recentresearch and development in diverse fields, for the purpose of cross-fertilization by, andexchange of, ideas, methodologies, theories, and experimental and computationaltechniques.Two broad classes of wave problems will receive attention: direct and inverseproblems. In the direct problem, the configuration, material constitution, and externalexcitation are known, and the response of the body must be determined. In the inverseproblem, the external excitation, the response, and perhaps the configuration, are known,while the material constitution (mechanical properties, defects) must be determined.Solutions of the inverse problem are essential for measurement to determine the state of amaterial, but no inverse problem is solvable without a good understanding of the directproblem. Hence, direct and inverse problems should both be considered.The Symposium will bring together an international group of workers from different fields for an exchange of information via presentations, subsequent discussions, and comments, in the informal setting of a relatively small meeting. Another objective will be to bring in younger researchers who may not yet have achieved an international reputation, but who would greatly benefit from interaction with more experienced colleagues.
