15th International Symposium on Ultrasonic Doppler Methods for Fluid Mechanics and Fluid Engineering (ISUD 2026)

Workshop
May 3, 2026 - May 7, 2026
Modelling the transport by fluids of dissolved matter, solid particles, pollutants, natural sediments or gaz bubbles, remains nowadays a scientific challenging and technically complex research field, particularly in hydrodynamically turbulent geophysical or industrial flows subject to unsolved two-phase or multi-phase flow interaction processes. Doppler ultrasound methods offer process-oriented measurements in both transparent and opaque multi-phase flows over a wide range of flow scales extending from turbulent microscales to large bulk-flow scales. They have benefited over the past decade from the miniaturization of hardware tools, electronics, sensor technology, data storage units and from the constantly growing performance of embedded digital systems, digital signal processing methods, batterie autonomy as well as recent machine learning methods.
In this context, novel initiatives are regularly proposed by universities, national institutes, industrial R&D and engineering companies for the improvement of measurement performances of Doppler ultrasound methods in fluid mechanics, fluid engineering, river or coastal hydraulics, water sciences and physical oceanography. This symposium intends to stimulate exchanges between developers, users and experts of different communities by proposing a symposium program around 3 themes: T1: Environmental flows, T2: Hydrometry & flow metering, T3: Complex fluids

This session is organized by:
David HURTHER, Université Grenoble Alpes, LEGI, France
Giovanni DE CESARE, EPFL, Pl-LCH, Switzerland
