Congratulations to CDT PGR Joseph Beadle, who submitted his thesis last week. Joseph was supervised by Prof. J. R. Sambles and Prof. A.P. Hibbins, and his PhD project was entitled: ‘An exploration of acoustic metasurfaces’. The aim was to experimentally explore the effect that structuring surfaces had on the near-field acoustic surface waves. The project […]
