NORDA Parabolic Equation Workshop, 31 March - 3 April 1981

Abstract

A Parabolic Equation (PE) workshop sponsored by the Surveillance Environmental Acoustic Support (SEAS) Project and hosted by NORDA's Numerical Modeling Division was held at NSTL from 31 March to 3 April 1981. The purpose of the workshop was to provide a forum for those active in theoretical and applied PE development and to compare computer results for a set of ocean acoustic problems. Fifteen formal presentations were given, and thirteen different PE models were exercised against four test cases. The test cases ranged from one that any PE should be able to handle to one that is a challenge for every PE. This report describes the results of that workshop and includes the theoretical bases for the models, the model descriptions, results of the test cases, and abstracts of the formal presentations.
