Book Underwater Acoustic Modeling and Simulation  Fourth Edition

Download or read book Underwater Acoustic Modeling and Simulation Fourth Edition written by Paul C. Etter and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-02-21 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Underwater Acoustic Modeling and Simulation, Fourth Edition continues to provide the most authoritative overview of currently available propagation, noise, reverberation, and sonar-performance models. This fourth edition of a bestseller discusses the fundamental processes involved in simulating the performance of underwater acoustic systems and emphasizes the importance of applying the proper modeling resources to simulate the behavior of sound in virtual ocean environments. New to the Fourth Edition Extensive new material that addresses recent advances in inverse techniques and marine-mammal protection Problem sets in each chapter Updated and expanded inventories of available models Designed for readers with an understanding of underwater acoustics but who are unfamiliar with the various aspects of modeling, the book includes sufficient mathematical derivations to demonstrate model formulations and provides guidelines for selecting and using the models. Examples of each type of model illustrate model formulations, model assumptions, and algorithm efficiency. Simulation case studies are also included to demonstrate practical applications. Providing a thorough source of information on modeling resources, this book examines the translation of our physical understanding of sound in the sea into mathematical models that simulate acoustic propagation, noise, and reverberation in the ocean. The text shows how these models are used to predict and diagnose the performance of complex sonar systems operating in the undersea environment.

Book excerpt: Acoustic time reversal is of interest to the United States Navy because it is an effective means for focusing sound in unknown underwater environments. For the last nine years, the Office of Naval Research has supported theoretical and numerical investigations at the University of Michigan into the performance of time reversing arrays in the ocean. This report summarizes the research accomplishments of these investigations.

Book Adaptive Reverberation Nulling Using a Time Reversal Mirror

Download or read book Adaptive Reverberation Nulling Using a Time Reversal Mirror written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The major problem for active sonar systems operating in shallow water is the detection of target in the presence of severe bottom reverberation. The focusing capability of a time reversal mirror (TRM) suggest two different approaches to this problem. First, a TRM focuses acoustic energy on a target enhancing the target echo while shadowing the boundaries below and above the focus in an acoustic waveguide, thereby reducing reverberation. The resulting echo-to-reverberation enhancement has been demonstrated experimentally in the 3-4 kHz band in shallow water. The second approach is reverberation nulling to enhance target detectability since focusing and nulling are complementary. The idea is to minimize the acoustic energy incident on the corresponding scattering interface by applying an excitation weight vector which is orthogonal to the time-gated reverberation focusing vector. Both numerical simulations and experimental results illustrate the potential of reverberation nulling using a time reversal mirror.

Book Acoustic Sensing Techniques for the Shallow Water Environment

Download or read book Acoustic Sensing Techniques for the Shallow Water Environment written by Andrea Caiti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-09-21 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the collection of papers from the second workshop on Experimental Acoustic Inversion Techniques for Exploration of the Shallow Water Environment. Acoustic techniques provide the most effective means for remote sensing of ocean and sea floor processes, and for probing the structure beneath the sea floor. No other energy propagates as efficiently in the ocean: radio waves and visible light are severely limited in range because the ocean is a highly conductive medium. However, sound from breaking waves and coastal shipping can be heard throughout the ocean, and marine mammals communicate acoustically over basin scale distances. The papers in this book indicate a high level of research interest that has generated significant progress in development and application of experimental acoustic inversion techniques. The applications span a broad scope in geosciences, from geophysical, biological and even geochemical research. The list includes: estimation of geotechnical properties of sea bed materials; navigation and mapping of the sea floor; fisheries, aquaculture and sea bed habitat assessment; monitoring of marine mammals; sediment transport; and investigation of natural geohazards in marine sediments. Audience This book is primarily intended for physicists and engineers working in underwater acoustics and oceanic engineering. It will also be of interest to marine biologists, geophysicists and oceanographers as potential users of the methodologies and techniques described in the book contributions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applied Underwater Acoustics meets the needs of scientists and engineers working in underwater acoustics and graduate students solving problems in, and preparing theses on, topics in underwater acoustics. The book is structured to provide the basis for rapidly assimilating the essential underwater acoustic knowledge base for practical application to daily research and analysis. Each chapter of the book is self-supporting and focuses on a single topic and its relation to underwater acoustics. The chapters start with a brief description of the topic’s physical background, necessary definitions, and a short description of the applications, along with a roadmap to the chapter. The subtopics covered within individual subchapters include most frequently used equations that describe the topic. Equations are not derived, rather, assumptions behind equations and limitations on the applications of each equation are emphasized. Figures, tables, and illustrations related to the sub-topic are presented in an easy-to-use manner, and examples on the use of the equations, including appropriate figures and tables are also included. Provides a complete and up-to-date treatment of all major subjects of underwater acoustics Presents chapters written by recognized experts in their individual field Covers the fundamental knowledge scientists and engineers need to solve problems in underwater acoustics Illuminates, in shorter sub-chapters, the modern applications of underwater acoustics that are described in worked examples Demands no prior knowledge of underwater acoustics, and the physical principles and mathematics are designed to be readily understood by scientists, engineers, and graduate students of underwater acoustics Includes a comprehensive list of literature references for each chapter
