معرفی
Vitali Goussev is a Distinguished Professor at Le Mans Université, France, working at the Laboratory of Acoustics of the University of Maine (LAUM), a joint research unit with CNRS. He has been a professor at the École Nationale Supérieure d'Ingénieurs du Mans (ENSIM) since 1998, contributing significantly to the fields of acoustics, laser ultrasonics, and photoacoustics.
Professor Goussev earned his PhD in physics and mathematics (laser physics) in 1982 from Moscow State University, Russia, followed by habilitations in mathematics and physics (acoustics) at Moscow University in 1992 and at Le Mans University in 1997. His academic journey spans institutions in Russia, France, Japan, Germany, and Canada through various prestigious fellowships.
His research focuses on nonlinear acoustics, thermo-acoustics, laser ultrasonics, photoacoustics, interaction of laser radiation with matter, laser-induced ultrafast phenomena, physics of semiconductors and nanomaterials, and acoustic metamaterials. His work has significantly advanced our understanding of acoustic wave propagation in complex media, particularly granular materials and nanostructures. His recent research emphasizes time-domain Brillouin scattering applications for imaging, nonlinear laser ultrasound, acoustics of granular media, and non-destructive testing and evaluation of nanomaterials.
Analysis of his 15 most recent publications reveals a strong trend toward advanced imaging techniques, particularly using time-domain Brillouin scattering for nanoscale characterization. His work bridges fundamental physics with practical applications in materials science, semiconductor technology, and non-destructive testing. A significant portion of his recent research focuses on understanding acoustic phenomena in complex materials like granular media, ice phases, and ferroelectric nanostructures.
