Jl. Buchanan et Rp. Gilbert, TRANSMISSION LOSS IN THE FAR-FIELD OVER A SEABED WITH RIGID SUBSTRATEASSUMING THE BIOT SEDIMENT MODEL, Journal of computational acoustics, 4(1), 1996, pp. 29-54
A system of differential equations is derived from Blot's constitutive
and motion equations for a poroelastic material. The seabed is modele
d as a poroelastic layer over a rigid substrate. A residue expansion f
or pressure in the far field is found in the case of constant paramete
rs. The model's prediction for transmission loss is examined for five
different types of sediments.
