Abstract
Earlier studies [P. J. Westervelt, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 29, 199-203, 93 4-935 (1957)] of the mutual nonlinear interaction of two plane waves o f sound with each other are extended to include the viscous effect. Th e viscous effect is considered both from the equations of motion and t he equation of state of the medium. An analytical solution to the lowe st-order scattering process is obtained if the viscous effect of secon d order and higher can be neglected. (C) 1996 Acoustical Society of Am erica.
