based on microwaves. Dr. Ida is a life fellow of the Institute of Electric and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), a fellow of the American Society of Nondestructive Testing (ASNT), a fellow of the Applied Computational Electromagnetics Society (ACES), and a fellow of the Institute of Electronics and Technology (IET). Dr. Ida teaches electromagnetics, antenna theory, electromagnetic compatibility, sensing, and actuation, as well as computational methods and algorithms. Dr. Ida received his B.Sc. in 1977 and M.S.E.E. in 1979 from the Ben-Gurion University in Israel, and his Ph.D. from Colorado State University in 1983.



Norbert Meyendorf retired in fall 2018 as deputy director of the Center for Nondestructive Evaluation and professor in the Aerospace Engineering department at the Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa. Before joining ISU in 2016 he had several appointment and ranks. The most recent are: Branch Director at the Fraunhofer Institute for Nondestructive Testing IZFP and later IKTS, director of the International University of Dayton/Fraunhofer Research Center at the School of Engineering at the University of Dayton, organizing collaborative projects between Fraunhofer and University of Dayton, and Program Director of the Master program "Nondestructive Testing, M. Sc. (NDT)" at the Dresden International University (DIU) between 2011 and 2015. Norbert Meyendorf continues to be active as adjunct professor for micro- and nano-NDE at the University of Dresden and adjunct professor at the Department for Chemical and Materials Engineering, University of Dayton. He is the author or coauthor of more than 300 peerreviewed journal articles, contributions to edited proceedings, technical reports, and numerous oral presentations on conferences, meetings, workshops, etc. He is editor in chief of the Journal of Nondestructive Evaluation and edited several books and conference proceedings. His areas of expertise include solid state physics and physical analytics, welding metallurgy, materials testing, nondestructive evaluation (NDE), and structural heath monitoring (SHM), for instance. Since 2001, he has been chairman or co-chairman of several conferences within the SPIE International Symposium on Nondestructive Evaluation for Health Monitoring and Diagnostics and later the Symposium for Smart Structures and NDE. In 2005, 2006, 2012, and 2013, he was chair or co-chair of the whole SPIE Symposium. In 2018 he became fellow of SPIE. Norbert Meyendorf was founder and chair of two expert committees of the German Society for Non-Destructive Testing (DGZfP), the Expert Committees for "Structural Health Monitoring" and "Materials Diagnostics." Between 2016 and 2018, he reorganized and directed the ASNT Section Iowa.
