Underwater Acoustic Modelling and Simulationby Paul. C Etter
Spon Press 2003; US$ 300.00Underwater Acoustic Modeling and Simulation examines the translation of our physical understanding of sound in the sea into mathematical models that can simulate acoustic propagation, noise and reverberation in the ocean. These models are used more...
Handbook of the Speed of Sound in Real Gasesby Allan J. Zuckerwar
Elsevier 2002; US$ 1,520.00After the introductory chapters in each volume, the material in each chapter starts out with definitions and engineering formulas, applies these to the individual gases, and proceeds to advanced theory at the molecular level. The formulas and theory are illustrated with examples throughout. Uncertainty, in both measurement and prediction, is a recurring theme throughout both volumes. The engineering formulas are suited to engineering and science students at the undergraduate level. The advanced theory is for professionals and students at the graduate level. The Handbook will survey the state of the art from 1921 to the present, pointing out gaps in our present knowledge. more...
Fundamentals of Acoustical Oceanographyby Herman Medwin; Clarence S. Clay
Elsevier 1997; US$ 104.95The developments in the field of ocean acoustics over recent years make this book an important reference for specialists in acoustics, oceanography, marine biology, and related fields. Fundamentals of Acoustical Oceanography also encourages a new generation of scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs to apply the modern methods of acoustical physics to probe the unknown sea. The book is an authoritative, modern text with examples and exercises. It contains techniques to solve the direct problems, solutions of inverse problems, and an extensive bibliography from the earliest use of sound in the sea to present references. Written by internationally recognized scientists, the book provides background to measure ocean parameters and processes,... more...
Transducers and Arrays for Underwater Soundby Charles H. Sherman; John L. Butler
Springer 2006; US$ 179.00Discusses the theory, development and design of electroacoustic transducers for underwater applications. This book includes the basics of the six major types of electroacoustic transducers and shows why piezoelectric ceramic transducers are the most suitable for underwater sound. It also presents the basic acoustic concepts. more...

High-Frequency Seafloor Acousticsby Darrell R. Jackson; Michael D. Richardson
Springer 2007; US$ 169.00A research monograph on high-Frequency Seafloor Acoustics. It provides a critical evaluation of the data and models pertaining to high-frequency acoustic interaction with the seafloor, which is useful for researchers in underwater acoustics and to developers of commercial and military sonars. more...
Sound Propagationby Yang-Hann Kim
John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2010; US$ 140.00In Sound Propagation: An Impedance Based Approach , Professor Yang-Hann Kim introduces acoustics and sound fields by using the concept of impedance. Kim starts with vibrations and waves, demonstrating how vibration can be envisaged as a kind of wave, mathematically and physically. One-dimensional waves are used to convey the fundamental concepts. Readers can then understand wave propagation in terms of characteristic and driving point impedance. The essential measures for acoustic waves, such as dB scale, octave scale, acoustic pressure, energy, and intensity, are explained. These measures are all realized by one-dimensional examples, which provide mathematically simplest but clear enough physical insights. Kim then moves on to explaining... more...
Underwater Acoustic Networking Techniquesby Roald Otnes
Springer 2012; US$ 49.95This literature study presents an overview of underwater acoustic networking. It provides a background and describes the state of the art of all networking facets that are relevant for underwater applications. This report serves both as an introduction to the subject and as a summary of existing protocols, providing support and inspiration for the development of network architectures. more...
