Stress wave engineering:
The work is essentially in passive and active ultrasound. Passive ultrasound
involves the application of Acoustic Emission to management and monitoring of
manufacturing processes, structural integrity and engines and other types of
rotating and reciprocating machines. Opportunities also exist in active
ultrasound, using surface acoustic waves to move fluids in microengineered
fluid handling devices.
