Acoustic Pulse Detection Patterns
AREA OF RESEARCH
Computer Simulation and Modeling
PROJECT NAME
Acoustic Pulse Detection Patterns
DATES
Fall, 1998
RESEARCHERS
Michael Wolfson
DEPARTMENT
Environmental Acoustics Department, ARL
DESCRIPTION
The mission of the Environmental Acoustics Department is to conduct research an
d
development activities in acoustic radiation, propagation, scattering, reflecti
on,
absorption, and natural/manmade noise analysis, including spatial and temporal
fluctuations and to work interactively with other divisions of the Laboratory.
The
objectives of the research and development efforts are attained by use of physi
cal theory,
physics-based models, and at-sea experiments.
Current research thrusts are:
- Surface, volume, and bottom acoustical characterization and scattering
- Measurements and modeling in the ocean
- Acoustic fluctuations in the ocean and atmosphere
- Effects of irregular terrain on the propagation of sound in the atmosphere
