Experimental Investigation of Propagation and Reflection Phenomena in Finite Amplitude Sound Beams*

Wednesday, March 9, 1994 2:00 p.m. Michalakis A. Averkiou The University of Texas at Austin Measurements of finite amplitude sound beams are compared with theoretical predictions based on the KZK equation. Attention is devoted to harmonic genĀ­eration and shock formation related to a variety of propagation and reflection phenomena. Both focused and unfocused piston sources…
