About
Professor Kirill V. Horoshenkov is a leading figure in acoustic engineering, whose work is revolutionizing the maintenance of critical water infrastructure. His research masterfully blends acoustics, robotics, and signal processing to solve the pressing challenge of detecting defects in buried pipe networks. His most impactful contribution is a comprehensive review on acoustic and ultrasonic techniques for water and sewerage pipes, which has garnered over 200 citations, establishing a foundational reference for the field. Beyond this, he has pioneered the use of microphone arrays for simultaneous condition detection, localization, and classification within pipes, achieving high-resolution defect mapping with minimal sensors. A key achievement is his leadership in the Pipebots project, which develops biologically-inspired swarm robots for autonomous pipe inspection. His recent work on acoustic echo sensing for robot localization and sparse representation beamforming for mobile robots is pushing the boundaries of in-pipe robotics. With a portfolio of highly-cited papers, Professor Horoshenkov’s work is not only academically influential but also directly applicable to preventing leaks and environmental damage in aging water systems worldwide.
