OVERVIEW

The 180th Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America (ASA) is organized by Acoustical Society of America (ASA) and will be held from Jun 08 - 10, 2021.

Description:
AiF will be a new and exciting forum for acoustics researchers, practitioners, educators, and students to learn from each other.

Recognizing that online meetings cannot demand the complete attention of attendees for five full days, the meeting will be shorter than usual with a more focused set of topics. There will be a variety of technical session formats designed to encourage active participation by attendees in an online format. This new structure is informed by the post-meeting survey for the fall 2020 Acoustics Virtually Everywhere (AVE) meeting.

Formats for Acoustics in Focus technical sessions include the following:
• Focused Presentation sessions that consist of pre-recorded invited and/or contributed talks within a specific topic or focus, with live discussion and interaction. Presentations require abstract submission to a relevant session.
• Tutorial sessions that consist of an invited speaker giving a (live) feature-length presentation, answering questions, and leading discussion on topics chosen by Technical Committees.
• Panel Discussion sessions that feature up to seven invited discussion leaders who may give live short presentations, answer questions, and lead discussions on topics chosen by Technical Committees.
• Lightning Round sessions that consist of a rapid sequence of brief (5-minute) live presentations. Session chairs will organize presenters around a theme and moderate a lively discussion following the talks. (An author of a lightning-round presentation may also be the presenting author of one paper in a Focused Presentation session).

Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
