The Origin of Different Acoustic Perturbation Scattering Concepts at Rough Random Surfaces

Abstract

Recent translations from Russian literature show that the Russian community has analyzed acoustic wave scattering by utilizing Bass's perturbation method. The method of Bass was initiated in 1960 for the community of electromagnetic field about the time Marsh formulated his for the community of underwater acoustic field. The Russian community has since been aware of the concept of Marsh-Kuo. Somehow, Bass's method got quite popular in the U.S. and England. It became the basis of some publications reporting solutions to problems basically addressed by the method of Marsh-Kuo ten years earlier. In this letter, an attempt is made to identify the common origin of these scattering concepts.
