Background

About Yu Weng

Ultrasonics • More than 10 years of research and industry experience in ultrasonics. • Ultrasonic shear wave scattering quantification in the aerospace industry. • Ultrasonic borehole imaging for radius and impedance measurement in the oilfield industry. • Ultrasound B-mode imaging (transmit and receive beamforming) in the biomedical industry. • Photoacoustic imaging and nonlinear contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) imaging. Signal Processing & Imaging • Transducer excitation (pulse/ chirp) and echo-signal processing (denoising, filtering, and deconvolution). • Pulse-echo mode signal measurement, spectrum analysis, and arrival time extraction. • Time-space processing and frequency-wavenumber processing (temporal and spatial windowing, spatial anti-aliasing, Fourier transform, directional filtering, and phase-velocity filtering). • Ray tracing analysis on shear wave propagation, reflection, and scattering. • Wavefield image alignment for the purpose of baseline subtraction. • High-resolution acoustic impedance imaging, image distortion correction, and attenuation correction. Communication • Extensive teaching assistant experience. • Strong professional oral presentation skills. • Academic writing abilities: conference and journal papers, project reports, patents, and dissertations.
