A European Marie Curie Initial Training Network (ITN-ETN)
The WAVES project is a collaborative research and training network comprising twelve leading international universities, research centers and three industrial partners, gathering participants with expertise in the interdisciplinary field of acoustic/elastic wave propagation and wave-based imaging and monitoring.
WAVES is funded by the European Union under the "H2020 - MSCA - ITN - 2014" program for a duration of 4 years (Jan. 2015 - Dec. 2018).

Short-courses by INSERM, NTNU & TU Delft
Three short courses will be combined within this week for time and travel efficiency. The following topics will be addressed: Medical imaging and therapeutic application of ultrasounds (INSERM), Seismic marine acquisition and processing (NTNU) & Seismo-acoustic waves in the earth, oceans and atmosphere (DUT)

Workshop 5 - Wave propagation laboratory experimentation and 3D printing
This workshop has been held at the ETH in Zürich on February, 5-7th, 2018.
It focused on wave propagation laboratory experimentation and control using metamaterials and novel boundary conditions. Topics presented ranged from: “methods to obtain the impulse response of acoustic metamaterial samples of finite extent” to “shaping the flow of waves with metamaterials: models and experiments” and “exact...05.06.2017 - 09.06.2017
Workshop 4 - Passive Imaging and monitoring in wave physics: from seismology to ultrasound
Workshop 4 “Passive Imaging and monitoring in wave physics: from seismology to ultrasound”, organized by CNRS, was held in Cargèse (Corsica, France), on June 5th-9th, 2017.
Noise correlation or interferometry is an innovative technique which allows, for examples, to implement seismic images in the absence of seismic events (no earthquakes or explosions!): the structure of complex media is evaluated...29.05.2017 - 02.06.2017
3 short-courses in Marseille (n°6/7/11)
3 short-courses in Marseille
29/05-02/06/2017
The combination of theory and laboratory is one of the main strengths of the WAVES training program: the combination of courses 6 and 7 allowed all ESRs to develop an advanced competence in both aspects of research. Course 11 deals with a new approach to data analysis, relevant both for research and dissemination. "Sonification" is a set of techniques to...26.03.2017 - 29.03.2017
Workshop 3 - Industrial Perspective
The 3rd WAVES Workshop (26-29/03/2017, Cambridge, UK) trained the participants on research in the industry, including career development skills (management, entrepreneuship, IPR issues etc.), as well as science themes that are particularly relevant to industrial applictions, e.g. large-scale data acquisition, geophysical imaging of industrial datasets, time-lapse reservoir characterization, seismic...

Short-course by TU Delft - Advanced geophysical imaging in complex media
This first WAVES short-course was held in Delft in September 2016 (6-16), just after the 2nd WAVES Workshop. The fellows learn in a systematic way how to use unified reciprocity theorems to derive seismic methods, such as imaging, multiple elimination, interferometry, time-reversal, etc.
02.09.2016 - 05.09.2016
Workshop 2: Advances in imaging
The 2nd Workshop 'Advances in imaging' has been slightly postponed to September 2016 and was organized in Delft by TU Delft together with INSERM.
17.09.2015 - 21.09.2015
Workshop 1: Highland Retreat
This 1st Workshop has been held in Pitlochry, Scotland, on 17-21 September 2015.
