What is ISNA?

Although the origin of nonlinear acoustics dates back to the pioneering work by great mathematicians and physicists in 18th and 19th centuries, a new surge emerged in 1960's to research various problems associated with acoustic waves of finite amplitude from a unified point of view as “nonlinear acoustics.” In 1968, the meeting devoted to discuss exclusively nonlinear acoustics was held at the Navy Underwater Sound Laboratory, New London, Connecticut, USA. This meeting has since been labeled the first International Symposium on Nonlinear Acoustics (ISNA). Since then, the ISNA was held every year or every two years in Denmark, France, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom and the United States until 1978. After this year, the ISNA has been held every three years.

Abstract Submission Coming Soon Online Registration Coming Soon

Welcome to the 2025 International Symposium on Nonlinear Acoustics, which will take place in the beautiful city of Nanjing, China, from June 30th to July 4th, 2025. We are thrilled and deeply honored to host this prestigious event, gathering researchers, academics, and professionals from across the globe to foster scientific exchange, generate innovative ideas, and inspire groundbreaking projects in the field of nonlinear acoustics.

The Institute of Acoustics at Nanjing University was founded by Prof. Rongjue Wei in 1954. It is the top acoustics department among Chinese universities, and has broad research directions, such as physical acoustics, nonlinear acoustics, biomedical ultrasound, photoacoustics, transducer engineering, electroacoustics and audio acoustics.

Nanjing, a city steeped in history and culture, serves as the capital of Jiangsu province and stands as a key center for education, research, and innovation in China. Situated along the Yangtze River, Nanjing is one of China's Four Great Ancient Capitals, known for its lush green parks, scenic lakes, and historical monuments that attract visitors from around the world. We look forward to welcoming you to Nanjing, China, and to an enriching and inspiring symposium in 2025.

Very sincerely,
