[2026] Localization of ultrasound fields on thin plates using sparse sensors

Assignment

Aims:

•Localize and quantify the ultrasound stimulation field applied to MEA during neuron-on-chip (NoC) experiments.

Works:

•Wave propagation modeling on thin glass plates

•Acoustic emission source localization using beamforming based on shear and Lamb wave modes

Scientific problem:

•Identify the dominant wave modes in thin-plate ultrasound stimulation 

•Determine whether sparse sensors can reliably localize and quantify stimulation events.

Potential collaboration: Reden

Requirements

Interested students should contact Dr. Vasiliki Giagka by sending an email expressing their interest in the project. The email should also contain the following: CV, list of courses you have attended so far and grades obtained, courses you are planning to take in the future, and more importantly a motivation letter explaining why you are interested in the project.
