Ja. Fawcett, COUPLED-MODE MODELING OF ACOUSTIC SCATTERING FROM 3-DIMENSIONAL, AXISYMMETRICAL OBJECTS, The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 102(6), 1997, pp. 3387-3393
In this paper a coupled-mode method for computing the wave field scatt
ered by three-dimensional, axisymmetric fluid objects is presented. Th
e method provides a unified approach to solving three-dimensional scat
tering problems for axisymmetric objects in free space, in a waveguide
, or partially or fully buried in a basement. Numerical computations o
f scattering from finite cylinders in free space and embedded between
two half-spaces are presented. Also, the method is used to compute the
scattering from an infinitely long cylinder for which analytical resu
lts are available. [S0001-4966(97)03412-7].
