Guided Ultrasonic Waves: Emerging Methods (GUWEM) Workshop 2026

In Europe, we have a small but vibrant community of researchers working on the theory and practical use of elastic waveguides for material characterization, nondestructive testing and microelectronics. This workshop aims to provide a platform where these groups can meet and exchange ideas. Current advances in the field will be presented in the form of talks and posters. The goal is not only to exchange but also to interconnect, creating opportunities for valuable collaborations.

The workshop is organized by the Institut Langevin and the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM). It is supported financially by the European Acoustics Association (EAA) and endorsed otherwise by the Société Française d’Acoustique (SFA) and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Akustik e.V. (DEGA).

The previous edition took place in 2024 at Linslerhof: websitebook of abstracts.
