PREFACE
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 19th International Symposium on
Acoustical Imaging at the Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany during April 3 -5,
1991. It was the first time that the symposium was held in Europe after major
political changes happened in that area. The freedom to travel for all people from
eastern European countries was an obvious reason for the great numbers of sub
mitted abstracts and for numerous conference participants. 193 of 239 submitted
contributions from 29 countries were accepted for presentation by authors from
USA (13%), Canada (2%), Japan (7%), Peoples Republic of China (7%), United
Kingdom (4%), France (7%), Italy (3%), Poland (4%), Soviet Union (7%), Germany
(28%) and other countries (18%). 283 scientists from 29 countries attended the
conference representing the interdisciplinary field between mathematics, physics,
engineering and medicine.
151 papers were available for publication in this proceedings covering the topics
1. Mathematics and Physics of Acoustical Imaging
2. Components and Systems
3. Applications in Medicine and Biology
4. Applications in Nondestructive Testing
5. Remote Sensing Applications
6. Industrial Applications
A relative large number of contributions on acoustical microscopy was included in
the conference program within topics 3 and 4. Also, papers on "non-traditional"
acoustical imaging subjects, e.g. on phonon imaging and on remote sensing in the
atmosphere, have broadened the scope of the conference.
The success and stimulation of the conference and of the papers presented in this
volume is owed, of course to the authors and participants. Many thanks are due to
the authors and their co-workers for their diligence and enthusiasm in performing
their research, preparing their manuscripts and presenting their results. The editors
would like to express their appreciation to each and every one of them.
The editors would like to also thank the 55 members of the International Advisory
Board who evaluated the abstracts, nominated the invited speakers, and made their
suggestions concerning scope and topics of the conference program.
Furthermore, the editors wish to thank the National Steering Committee whose
membership included, apart from the editors themselves, W. Arnold, Saarbrucken,
v
L.J. Balk, Duisburg, K.J. Langenberg, Kassel, and G. van Kaick, Heidelberg for
giving their able advice in the organization and direction of the conference.
Special thanks are due to H. Entschladen who managed the Symposium finances
including travelling support for participants from eastern Europe, as well as to W.
Budach for organizing local arrangements and the exhibition.
Finally the editors have to thank the staff of the High Frequency Engineering and the
Geophysics Institutes of the Ruhr-Universitat who assisted in planning and organizing
the conference as well as in editing the proceedings. Last but not least, the financial
support by the Ministry of Science and Research (North-Rhine-Westphalia), The Ger
man Research Foundation (DFG), the German Academic Exchange Council (DAAD) ,
the Stifterverband fUr die Deutsche Wissenschaft, the Society of Friends of the Ruhr
University, Siemens, Hewlett-Packard and Tektronix is greatfully acknowledged.
The 20th International Symposium on Acoustical Imaging will be held during Sep
tember 12 - 14, 1992 at the Southeast University Nanjing, P. R. China under the
Chairmanship of Prof. Yu Wei.
