Acoustic Scattering Fromacoated Elastic Shell: Exact vs. Approximate Theory

The interaction of acoustic waves with fluid-loaded shell structures is an ongoing area of interest in underwater acoustics, ship construction and detection. The elasticity of the structure permits strong surfaceborne wave effects, which can be significant or dominant in large structures (many wavelengths in size). The significance of surface borne waves is compounded by low loss factors, enabl...

Acoustic Scattering by Shell-Covered Seafloors

Benthic shells are in the broad acoustic category of complex finite-sized shapes for which there is no exact mathematical solution to describe the acoustic scattering. Subsequently, the research program is a combination of theoretical analysis, numerical simulations, laboratory experimentation at WHOI, and comparison between models developed in this program and scattering data collected at sea....
