Radiation Acoustics

Informationen zum Autor Leonid M. Lyamshev Klappentext Exploring the growing field of radiation acoustics! this book is a collection of all of the mist significant results achieved since research in this area began in earnest in the 1970s. It presents a theoretical treatment of thermoradiation sound generation in condensed media under the action of modulated penetrating radiation and radiation pulses. The author explores particular features of the acoustic fields of moving thermoradiation sound sources! sound excitation by single high-energy particles! and the efficiency and optimal conditions of thermoradiation sound generation. He concludes with discussions on applications! including the large-scale DUMAND and GENIUS projects now on the horizon. Zusammenfassung This volume describes processes of thermoradiation (thermoelastic) excitation of sound by modulated and pulsed penetrating radiation. Inhaltsverzeichnis Introduction.
