Predicted attenuation of sound in a rigid-porous ground from an airborne source.

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Predicted attenuation of sound in a rigid-porous ground from an airborne source. An approximate analytical formula has been derived for the prediction of sound fields in a semi-infinite rigid-porous ground due to an airborne source. The method starts by expressing the sound fields in an integral ...

Thermal boundary layer effects on the acoustical impedance of enclosures and consequences for acoust

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Thermal boundary layer effects on the acoustical impedance of enclosures and consequences for acoustical sensing devices. Expressions are derived for the acoustical impedance of a rectangular enclosure and of a finite annular cylindrical enclosure. The derivation is valid throughout the frequency range in which all dimensions ...

Efficient absorbing boundary conditions for Biot’s equations in time-harmonic finite element applic

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Efficient absorbing boundary conditions for Biot\'s equations in time-harmonic finite element applications. Absorbing boundary conditions for two phase media previously presented by Zerfa and Loret [Earthquake Eng. Struct. Dyn. 33, 89-110 (2004)] have been improved by considering additionally absorbing waves with auxiliary angles of incidence. These ...

Demonstration of the invariance principle for active sonar.

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Demonstration of the invariance principle for active sonar. Active sonar systems can provide good target detection potential but are limited in shallow water environments by the high level of reverberation produced by the interaction between the acoustic signal and the ocean bottom. The nature of the ...

Waveguide invariant focusing for broadband beamforming in an oceanic waveguide.

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Waveguide invariant focusing for broadband beamforming in an oceanic waveguide. The performance of broadband sonar array processing can degrade significantly in shallow-water environments when interference becomes angularly spread due to multipath propagation. Particularly for towed line arrays near endfire, elevation angle spreading of multipath interference often ...

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Controlled and in situ target strengths of the jumbo squid Dosidicus gigas and identification of potential acoustic scattering sources. This study presents the first target strength measurements of Dosidicus gigas, a large squid that is a key predator, a significant prey, and the target of an ...

Joint time/frequency-domain inversion of reflection data for seabed geoacoustic profiles and uncerta

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Joint time/frequency-domain inversion of reflection data for seabed geoacoustic profiles and uncertainties. This paper develops a joint time/frequency-domain inversion for high-resolution single-bounce reflection data, with the potential to resolve fine-scale profiles of sediment velocity, density, and attenuation over small seafloor footprints ( approximately 100 m). The ...

Passive fathometer processing.

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Passive fathometer processing. Ocean acoustic noise can be processed efficiently to extract Green\'s function information between two receivers. By using noise array-processing techniques, it has been demonstrated that a passive array can be used as a fathometer [Siderius, et al., J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 120, 1315-1323 ...

Range-dependent waveguide scattering model calibrated for bottom reverberation in a continental shel

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Range-dependent waveguide scattering model calibrated for bottom reverberation in a continental shelf environment. An analytic model is developed for scattering from random inhomogeneities in range-dependent ocean waveguides using the Rayleigh-Born approximation to Green\'s theorem. The expected scattered intensity depends on statistical moments of fractional changes in ...

Bottom profiling by correlating beam-steered noise sequences.

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Bottom profiling by correlating beam-steered noise sequences. It has already been established that by cross-correlating ambient noise time series received on the upward and downward steered beams of a drifting vertical array one can obtain a subbottom layer profile. Strictly, the time differential of the cross ...

Low frequency wind noise contributions in measurement microphones.

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Low frequency wind noise contributions in measurement microphones. In a previous paper [R. Raspet, et al., J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 119, 834-843 (2006)], a method was introduced to predict upper and lower bounds for wind noise measured in spherical wind-screens from the measured incident velocity spectra. ...

Near field Rayleigh wave on soft porous layers.

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Near field Rayleigh wave on soft porous layers. Simulations performed for a typical semi-infinite reticulated plastic foam saturated by air show that, at distances less than three Rayleigh wavelengths from the area of mechanical excitation by a circular source, the normal frame velocity is close to ...

Attenuation and scattering of axisymmetrical modes in a fluid-filled round pipe with internally roug

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Attenuation and scattering of axisymmetrical modes in a fluid-filled round pipe with internally rough walls. The attenuation of axisymmetric eigenmodes in a cylindrical, elastic, fluid-filled waveguide with a statistically rough elastic wall is studied. It is shown that small perturbation theory can be used to relate ...

Comparing turbulence models for flow through a rigid glottal model.

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

Comparing turbulence models for flow through a rigid glottal model. Flow through a rigid model of the human vocal tract featuring a divergent glottis was numerically modeled using the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes approach. A number of different turbulence models, available in a widely used commercial computational fluid ...
