Dr. Stefano Laureti has significant experience in Pulse-Compression (PuC) theory and application for Nondestructive Testing (NDT) and Evaluation (NDE) purposes, coded signals, signal and image processing, and acoustic metamaterials. In 2014, he was fully funded with a Ph.D. grant from The School of Engineering, The University of Warwick, UK, and successfully carried out his Ph.D. research activity on “Acoustic Metamaterials for Medical Ultrasound and Non-Destructive Evaluation” via a co-tutelle program with the University of Perugia, Italy. During his Ph.D., he had the chance to keep himself active in NDT research, applying PuC in ultrasonic testing for evaluating highly-attenuating materials such as thick polymer samples, concrete, and steel forgings. He was then involved in Eddy Current (EC) testing, EC-stimulated Active Thermography, Pulse-compression Thermography applied to the NDE of cultural heritage items and composite materials, near-infrared spectroscopy for polymer and food NDE, identification of non-linear systems by means of PuC, and signal conditioning and post-processing for the mentioned applications. He has been the Project Manager of the “NDTonAIR” project (Training Network in Non-Destructive Testing and Structural Health Monitoring of Aircraft structures), funded under the action H2020-MSCA-ITN-2016- GRANT N° 722134 for 3.8 million of Euro. He is the Project Coordinator of the recently-funded “MetacMed” project (HORIZON Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA)-2022-DN-01), which has received funding for 2.2 million Euros. Stefano Laureti is currently a Researcher at the DIMES Dept., University of Calabria, Italy, and an Honorary Research Fellow within the School of Engineering, The University of Warwick, UK.
