Acoustic predictions of the recently developed traceo ray model, which accounts for bottom
shear properties, are benchmarked against tank experimental data from the EPEE-1 and …

Fish species and aquatic invertebrates are sensitive to underwater sound particle motion.
Studies on the impact of sound on marine life would benefit from sound particle motion …

In this paper, laboratory scale measurements of long range across-slope acoustic
propagation in a three-dimensional (3-D) wedge-like environment are compared to …

Parabolic equation (PE) method is an efficient tool for modelling underwater sound
propagation, particularly for problems involving range dependence. Since the PE method …

This paper discusses the design and operation of a measurement apparatus used to
conduct scale-model underwater acoustic propagation experiments, presents experimental …

Following the derivation presented by Press and Ewing [Geophysics 15, 426–446 (1950)], a
normal mode solution for the Pekeris waveguide problem with an elastic bottom is outlined …

An underwater acoustic experiment with a two-dimensional rough interface, milled from a
slab of PVC, was performed at a tank facility. The purpose was to verify the predictions of …

Modeling underwater acoustic propagation comes with a variety of challenges due to the
need for proper characterization of the environmental conditions. These conditions include …

The investigation of three-dimensional (3D) acoustic propagation in the ocean is an area of
ongoing research and includes the development of numerical models [1–7] and …
