This book presents current research trends in the field of
underwater acoustic wave direct and inverse problems. Until very
recently, little had been published concerning model-based
inversions of the boundaries and material constants of finite-sized
targets located in either the water column or the sediments. This
text is the first to investigate inverse problems in an ocean
environment, with a heavy emphasis placed on the description and
resolution of the forward scattering problem. Marine Acoustics
emphasizes computation of Green's Functions with new material added
for elastic and poro-elastic seabeds. This timely publication
addresses many areas of practical interest related to underwater
acoustical imaging, including ecological survey and cleanup,
protection of open water harbors, maintenance of offshore petroleum
and gas enterprises, and other areas of environmental and military
concern. The ocean-seabed system is an acoustic waveguide, and this
is the only book that treats inverse problems in a waveguide. The
propagation of acoustic waves in this system is treated for various
types of seabeds and the direct and inverse problems are considered
in realistic ocean environments. The inverse problem is to
determine the shape of an impenetrable or penetrable object, or to
determine the coefficients describing the seabed. This is done by
acoustically illuminating the seabed and investigating the
scattered field.
