Nonlinear Waveform Inversion for Quantitative Ultrasound
Due to its non-invasive and non-radiating nature, along with its low cost, ultrasound (US) imaging is widely used in medical applications. Typical B-mode US images have limited resolution and contrast and weak physical interpretation. Inverse US methods were developed to reconstruct the media's speed-of-sound (SoS) based on a linear acoustic model ...

Nonlinear acoustic and microwave absorption in disordered semiconductors
Nonlinear hopping absorption of ultrasound and electromagnetic waves in amorphous and doped semiconductors is considered. It is shown that even at low amplitudes of the electric (or acoustic) field the nonlinear corrections to the relaxational absorption
