Download or read book Ocean Acoustic Propagation by Finite Difference Methods written by D. Lee and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A concise guide to the theory and application of numerical methods for predicting ocean acoustic propagation, also providing an introduction to numerical methods, with an overview of those methods presently in use. An in-depth development of the implicit-finite-difference technique is presented together with bench-mark test examples included to demonstrate its application to realistic ocean environments. Other applications include atmospheric acoustics, plasma physics, quantum mechanics, optics and seismology.
