Nonlinear Behavior of Sound and its Application to Soliton Formation
Monday, October 10, 1988 1:00 p.m. Akira Nakamura Oska University Oska, Japan As is well known, the nonlinear distortion of finite amplitude sound results from the fact that propagation speed depends on particle velocity and the nonlinearity parameter of the medium. In the case of a thin fiber of fused silica, the waveform of a…
