Research and development of water quality and liquid flow-rate sensors

My PhD research at ETH Zürich was related to numerical modelling and physical experimentation of acoustic wave propagation, scattering, data-driven time-reversal and novel wavefield focusing methods. As part of the project, I was also involved in the planning and construction of multiple wave propagation laboratories. The PhD was part of the Marie Curie Initial Training Network WAVES (http://www.waves-itn.eu/en/index.html). Key competencies I acquired include: numerical modelling and physical experimentation of acoustic wave propagation, scattering, data-driven time-reversal and data-driven focusing; planning, designing and constructing wave propagation laboratories
