Book Description

November 1, 1995 0419201904 978-0419201908 2
Underwater Acoustic Modeling provides the only comprehensive source on how to translate our physical understanding of sound in the sea into mathematical formulas solvable by computers. This new edition is fully updated and covers: the major advances in underwater acoustic modeling, a comprehensive summary of the models now available, new developments in shallow-water acoustics, and inverse acoustic sensing of the oceans. The book includes practical guidelines for scientists and mathematicians needing to select and use the models, and shows them how the behaviour of sound can be modeled in a complex environment.
