Connection between the solution of the Helmholtz and parabolic equations for sound propagation
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1975/10)Using a conformal mapping technique in a rectangular waveguide, we present an exact integral relation between the solutions of the Helmholtz equation whose sound speed c(x,y) varies as a function of both depth y and range ... -
Intensity moments of underwater sound scattered by a Gaussian spectrum corrugated surface: measurements and comparison with a catastrophe theory approximation
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)An underwater forward-scattering investigation was undertaken with random rough corrugated pressure release surface manufactured out of Styrofoam. Measured wavefields associated with the reflection caustics agree with ... -
Inverse wave propagation in an inhomogeneous waveguide
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1975/10)A solution is given for the problem of inverse propagation in an inhomogeneous rectangular two-dimensional waveguide. The sound speed is assumed to vary in depth and inverse propagation means the calculation of the field ... -
The wave equation in a medium with a time-dependent boundary
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1974/02)It is shown that the Helmholtz equation is not exactly correct for a medium with a time-dependent boundary. The equation can be used with very good approximation when the time-derivative of the surface elevation is much ...
