Scope

The 6th International Workshop on Laser-Ultrasound for Metals will be held at Swerim, Stockholm, Sweden from May 22 to 23, 2024.

This workshop is continuing from previous workshops held at the University of British Columbia (Canada, 1st and 2nd), the metals research institute Swerim (former Swerea Kimab, Sweden, 3rd), and RECENDT in Linz (Austria, 4th), and CentraleSupélec in Paris (France, 5th).
