Measurement and modeling of acoustic propagation effects in complex environments
Abstract
The proposed work seeks to understand and model acoustic propagation in underwater environments, which may include complexities that arise from conversion to shear at a solid interface, interaction with multiphase media, out-of-plane propagation, or combinations of these effects. The main objectives of the proposed work are (1) development and application of forward propagation models that are suited to the environmental complexities of a specific problem, and(2) measurement and inference of geoacoustic properties, knowledge of which is necessary for accurate predictions of acoustic propagation.
