Abstract: The resonance features present, and observable, in the form-functions of submerged, fluid-filled, elastic, thin shells, usually appear combined with smooth, undesirable, background components that ...

Abstract: In classical electrodynamics (CED) P. Dirac used the average of retarded and advanced fields to represent the bound field and their difference to represent the free field in his derivation of ...

Abstract: The propagation of an impulsive excitation applied at the origin of a lossy viscous medium is studied by operational techniques as the excitation advances through the medium. The solution of ...

Abstract: Our earlier work in Part 1 of this paper [ 1] is here extended to quadrupole distributions and point quadrupoles (i.e., stresses) in arbitrary motion. Radiation patterns are obtained and ...

Abstract: We review a number of instances in which classical acoustic wave scattering from submerged elastic shells can be analyzed in the resonance region of their spectra. We recently reviewed (Refs ...

Abstract: The article presents an overview of transient resonance scattering, emphasizing one of its most important applications—the active classification of sonar and radar targets. It discusses traditional, ...
