Acoustic Radiation from a Double Hull Structure

Abstract

Accurate information on the transmission of sound through water is useful in designing sonar gear for echo ranging, as well as in providing helpful data for submarine tactics. During the last decade or two, a number of theoretical investigations have been carried out in which the radiation due to submarine hull vibration has been analyzed. The present study is a continuation of this effort to obtain a basic understanding of the radiation characteristics of structures. Of prime interest is the transmission loss characteristics of a double hull construction.
