UIA - 2001 Symposium

UIA 2001 Symposium Program

PROGRAM GOALS

To present a world class educational program on timely issues pertaining to the field of high power industrial and medical ultrasonics.
To provide a forum for discussion and networking among professionals employed or interested in the science and application of ultrasonics.
To provide presentations that will complement and have synergy with the IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium and the World Congress on Ultrasonics being held immediately prior to the UIA Annual Symposium.
To provide a program which will be of mutual benefits to the individuals attending; these attendees will be interested in the cross-fertilization of ideas, which is available from divergent apllications and research using ultrasonic energy.
