We are pleased to invite you to the upcoming 37^th Conference of the European Working Group on Acoustics, which takes place in Lyon, France, from 8^th to 10^th September 2026.

The EWGAE conference is a renowned international forum for researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in the field of acoustic emission.

The conference will provide an opportunity for participants to exchange ideas on the latest advances in the field of acoustic emission.

These advances include theoretical and experimental investigations, instrumentation, data analysis, and applications.

Main topics of the conference will be :

• AE testing (pressure vessels, storage tanks, pipes, etc.)
• AE monitoring (objects, machinery, processes, wear, etc.)
• AE, modeling and simulation
• AE and IA
• AE and other techniques (data fusion, etc.)
  
• AE signal detection and processing
• AE and material behavior (metals, polymers, composites, concrete, bones, wood, etc.)
• AE localisation of defects
• AE from corrosion
• AE from leakage
• AE in civil engineering
• AE in geology
• AE in transportation engineering
• AE in medical applications
• AE and tribology
• AE equipment and software
• AE standardisation

We look forward to seeing you all in Lyon in september 2025.

Nathalie Godin, Chair of EWGAE2026
