A Direct Means of Computing Sound Intensity along a Raypath in a Continuous Broken-Line Sound Velocity Field.

Abstract

Two formulas, equations (20) and (21), are derived for the intensity along a raypath in terms of the horizontal distance traveled by the wave front and the angle which the ray makes with the horizontal. Both formulas are amenable to digital computation in parallel with a regular digital raypath calculation. (Author)
