Scattering of Stationary and Non-Stationary Sound by Ideal and Elastic Scatterers, Placed near Interface of Media, in Underwater Sound Channel and in Plane Waveguide
In the review we obtained a strict solution of problem of the sound diffraction by an elastic spheroidal shell, located near the interface of a liquid medium with an elastic solid medium. Calculation of the scattered sound field for ideal bodies (a spheroid and an elliptical cylinder) is performed. These bodies are placed on the interface between the liquid and the ideal medium; it is shown, that the main role is played not by interaction of scatterers (real and imaginary), but by interference of their scattered fields. The spectrum of the scattered impulse signal for the body in an underwater sound channel is calculated. It is shown, that at large distances the dominante role is played by the spectral characteristic of the channel itself. Based on the method of imaginary sources and imaginary scatterers, the solution of the current study is to solve the diffraction problem of sound pulse signals at ideal (soft) prolate spheroid, which is put in the plane waveguide with the hard elastic bottom. In the work, it is proved that with such a formulation of problems eliminated, there exists possibility of using the method of normal waves because pulses are bundies of energy and can therefore only be distributed to the group velocity which is inherent in just the method of imaginary sources. Calculations made in the article showed that imaginary sources with small numbers exert the effect of total internal reflection, as the result of the reflection coefficient V by the hard elastic bottom which is complex and the real part of V is close to 1.0 which corresponds to V absolutely hard bottom. Found sequences of reflected pulses for the elastic hard bottom and the absolutely hard bottom floor confirmed this approach. In the final part of the article, on the basis of the received results, a solution (the method integral equations) is given, which is a much more complex problem of the diffraction at the elastic non-analytical scatterer, put in the plane waveguide with the hard elastic bottom.
