Results of Acceleration Measurements Made on a Modified AN/SQS-26 Sonar Dome Section

Abstract

This memorandum presents the results of USL measurements taken on an AN/SQS-26 sonar dome section to determine if a particular modification reduces vibrations when the dome section is excited by sonar transmissions. The purpose of the experiment that was conducted was to determine how an additional reinforcement in one panel of the dome section would affect the reverberant build-up of waves experienced by the dome window.
