ULTRASONICS RESEARCH GROUP
The Ultrasonics Research Group (URG) in UCC was established in 1997 and conducts research into novel ultrasonic applications, medical ultrasound, prototype ultrasonic transducers and techniques, and non-destructive testing/evaluation (NDT/NDE) methods. The group specialises in non-contact ultrasonic measurement, and has particular expertise in capacitive air-coupled transducers and their application, tomographic reconstruction, ultrasonic flow measurement and ultrasonic imaging.
The Ultrasonics Research Group is also part of the Biomedical Signal Processing Group in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, UCC.
