Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A resonance theory of acoustic scattering from penetrable bodies has recently been developed which describes the features of the scattering amplitude in terms of a background amplitude like that of an impenetrable scatter, with superimposed resonances at the eigenfrequencies of the body. In the present study (carried out for the example of a spherical gas bubble in a fluid which in spite of its simplicity contains all the essential features of the scattering process), the existence of these resonances is explained by the phase-matching of surface waves on the scatter whose phase and group velocities are obtained here. In addition, we study the dynamics of the interior motions inside the body during the scattering process, which are shown to undergo resonances in the radial and angular directions except for the radial motions of the surface, resulting in the fact that the modal surface deformations do not exhibit any particular resonance effects at the eigenfrequencies of the body.

Book excerpt: These 13 papers were part of a May 1989 symposium at the Catholic University of America, Washington, D.C., the home of much of the early theoretical and experimental work in acoustic resonance scattering. Topics include a historical survey of the development of the subject, a description of the MIIR and short- pulse methods, and new developments such as the derivation of exact acoustic background shells, application of the method of moments, and S-matrix product expansions.

This book was released on 1981 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SPHERICAL TARGETS. In acoustic scattering from elastic objects, resonances features appear in the returned echo at frequencies where the objects eigenfrequencies are located, which are explained by the excitation of interior creeping waves. Corresponding resonance terms may be split off from the total scattering amplitude, leaving behind an apparently nonresonant background amplitude. This is demonstrated here for scatterers of spherical geometry, and in the following companion paper also for scatterers or arbitrary geometry, using the T-matrix approach. For the case of near-impenetrable spheres, it is subsequently shown that the background amplitude can be split further into specularly reflected contributions, plus highly attenuated resonance terms which are explained by the excitation of exterior (Franz-type) creeping waves. The singularity structure of the scattering function is shown mathematically, using the R-matrix approach of Nuclear scattering theory, as that of a meromorphic function without any additional 'entire function' (as had been postulated by the Singularity Expansion Method).

Download or read book Marine Physics written by J. Dera and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1992-01-13 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In trying to discover as much as possible about the marine environment, oceanography has split into many subdisciplines, each represented by innumerable publications. To date however, there has been no concise synthesis introducing readers to the whole array of physical processes in the sea, and showing how these processes are related to one another and to other natural phenomena. The author of Marine Physics aims to fill this gap. The volume presents energy and mass transfer processes in the marine environment together with an explanation of their effects on other processes. Starting with a general introduction to the thermodynamics of ocean waters, there follow chapters on radiation transfer processes; the molecular exchange of mass, heat and momentum; the turbulent exchange of mass, heat and momentum; small-scale air-sea interactions; modelling the surface boundary layer; and the propagation of acoustic waves in the sea. The discussions begin with physical principles and culminate in a presentation of current research problems. The volume is completed with the presentation of basic quantities, equations, formulas and diagrams, as well as indexes and 576 literature references. This volume should be an invaluable resource to post-graduates and scientists in the fields of engineering and oceanography, and for those interested in the protection or exploitation of the marine environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resonance Acoustic Spectroscopy deals with the analysis of waves generated in an elastic body by a plane harmonic acoustic wave. It is the first monograph to treat new analytical and experimental methods for the investigation of the excitation, propagation and re-radiation of elastic waves in solid, thick-walled and thin-walled elastic scatterers.The material is presented systematically, comprising the formulation of the problem, method of solution, algorithm, computation and analysis. A large number of computational results are given in the form of modal resonances, form functions, dispersion curves and acoustic spectrograms. Particular attention is paid to the interpretation of the solutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High Frequency and Pulse Scattering investigates high frequency and pulse scattering, with emphasis on the phenomenon of echoes from objects. Geometrical and catastrophe optics methods in scattering are discussed, along with the scattering of sound pulses and the ringing of target resonances. Caustics and associated diffraction catastrophes are also examined. Comprised of two chapters, this volume begins with a detailed account of geometrically based approximation methods in scattering theory, focusing on waves transmitted through fluid and elastic scatterers and glory scattering; surface ray representations of scattering by shells and other smooth objects; and caustics and associated diffraction catastrophes. The second chapter deals with the relation between sound pulses and the vibrational spectra of elastic submerged objects. The theory of the scattering of sound pulses from elastic and impenetrable objects is described, together with the theory of surface wave pulses. Target resonances and the singularity expansion method are also analyzed. This book will be of interest to physicists.
