Academic (Reader) in Mechanical Engineering at Imperial College London. Interested in imaging, tomography, inversion with ultrasound for NDT and medicine. https://profiles.imperial.ac.uk/p.huthwaite
Great new paper here from George www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... - studying how we can reduce the number of simulations we need to ensure the reliability of NDT methods through interpolation techniques
Interpolation techniques for ultrasonic data
Many applications where ultrasound is used for diagnostics exist where limited data is preventing a particular approach from being fully exploited; fo…

If you're interested in how ultrasound can be used for measuring bone disease, I was recently on the ASA "Across Acoustics" podcast with my former PhD student Aaron @aaronchungjukko.bsky.social discussing this. Do have a listen! www.buzzsprout.com/1537384/epis...
A New Way to Diagnose Osteoporosis - Across Acoustics
Ultrasonic tomography has been applied in many fields, from geophysics to engineering, and now to medicine. In this episode, we talk with Aaron Chung-Jukko and Peter Huthwaite (Imperial College London...

Well done to Aaron for his paper here pubs.aip.org/asa/jasa/art... - a new technique to improve imaging in localised regions (e.g. bones)
Virtual initialised ray tomography: Towards contact-free realistic ultrasonic bone imaging
Ultrasound tomography struggles with high-contrast and/or extended-range problems, such as site-specific in vivo bone imaging, which is crucial for assessing fr

Really interesting - we encourage students and postdocs into the office to help their sense of belonging - they are part of a team.

Working remotely from a beach in a far-off land sounds like bliss – and the number of people doing it has soared since 2019. But between bouts of illness, relentless admin and crushing loneliness, many have found comfort in the 9-5 back home

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... - interesting that the government is prioritising this - the article highlights that only a tiny fraction of road deaths are caused by cyclists (yet cyclists are frequently vilified). Perhaps using this effort to implement better infrastructure would be wise?
Cyclists who kill could face life sentence in proposed law change
The amendment would also see increased sentences for deaths and serious injury caused by cyclists.

Congratulations to Evripides for passing his viva yesterday! Great work on modelling of leaky guided waves - we had a good discussion at the viva about the Disperse logo (featuring a leaky wave!) - and a nice celebration afterwards with the group.
