Nonlinear Acoustic Wave Propagation in a Pekeris Waveguide

Thursday, September 19, 1991 1:00 p.m. Carl Bruch Department of Physics The University of Texas Although acoustical media are often stratified, either continuously (e.g., via sound speed gradients) or with discrete but penetrable layers, finite amplitude effects in stratified media have been all but ignored. By channeling the sound, however, stratification can maintain high acoustic…
