Multi-path interference due to boundary reflection in shallow water acoustic communication poses a major obstacle to reliable and high-speed underwater communication system. In this study, initially 3D variations of field data such as sound speed, temperature and salinity in horizontal transects of the Strait of Hormuz were analyzed using the ROPME data. Later, data on typical sound speed ...

the present work is the successful extension of an improved equation of state (eos) to refrigerant fluids. the objective is the prediction of isothermal and saturated liquid densities of refrigerants. two temperature-independent parameters appearing in the modified eos are closely related to critical point properties of refrigerant fluids. our results showed that, the proposed eos can predict w...

introduction:  the  success  of  hyperthermia  depends  on  the  accuracy  of  the  temperature  monitoring in the tumor and the surrounding normal tissue. in this study, the temperature changes  were determined by computing the speckle displacement in the ultrasound digital images. speckle  tracking algorithm was used to compute the displacement.  materials and methods: the experiment was perf...

Existence of outflow intrusion introduces small-scale turbulence that perturbs the vertically stratified character of the sound velocity and causes spatial and temporal fluctuations of the sound propagation. In this experimental study, we have investigated acoustic wave propagation with frequency of 50 kHz in a pre-stratified environment with intrusion of a turbulent plume while the si...

The propagation of sound in a density-stratified fluid is examined in an experiment with a tank of salty water whose density increases continuously from the fluid surface to the tank bottom. Measurements of the height dependence of the fluid density are used to calculate the height dependence of the fluid salinity and sound speed. The height-dependent sound speed is then used to calculate the r...
