世界無損檢測中心聯(lián)合會秘書長應邀擔任2012遠東論壇學術

2012遠東無損檢測新技術論壇學術委員會主席簡介

Lester W Schmerr Jr，世界無損檢測中心聯(lián)合會秘書長；美國愛荷華州立大學航天工程教授，無損評價中心副主任。

個人簡歷：自1969年起一直任教于美國愛荷華州立大學，自1989年起擔任了位于愛荷華州無損評價中心的副主任；2003年起擔任了世界無損檢測中心聯(lián)合會的常任秘書長。

Schmerr教授的研究主要在在超聲波領域，重點是桿模型、缺陷散射模型以及缺陷尺寸測量，以及將人工智能方法與神經(jīng)網(wǎng)絡應用到超聲無損檢測模式識別等方面的研究。目前主要研究課題是超聲相控陣體系建模及其在檢測圖像生成新方法中的應用。

學術專著與論著：

1、 “超聲無損評價基礎原理—建模方法” 1998年出版；

2、 “超聲無損評價體系—模型與測量” 2001年出版（與  Sung-Jin Song合著）。

撰寫多篇關于關超聲波檢測建模、人工智能方法、神經(jīng)網(wǎng)絡的超聲檢測模式識別的文章、程序和書籍章節(jié)。

Short Biography:

Professor Schmerr has been a faculty member at Iowa State University since 1969, where he is currently Professor of Aerospace Engineering. He is also served as Associate Director of the Center for Nondestructive Evaluation at Iowa State since 1989 and has been the Permanent Secretary of the World Federation of NDE Centers since 2003. He has published two books: Fundamentals of Ultrasonic Nondestructive Evaluation – A Modeling Approach, Plenum Press, 1998, and with Prof.  Sung-Jin Song,  Ultrasonic Nondestructive Evaluation Systems – Models and Measurements, Springer, 2001. He has published numerous papers, proceedings, and book chapters on ultrasonic NDE modeling and he has applied artificial intelligence methods  and neural networks to ultrasonic NDE pattern recognition problems. His work in ultrasonics has focused on beam modeling, flaw scattering modeling, and flaw sizing. He is currently engaged in modeling ultrasonic phased array systems and their use in new methods of image formation.
