The nonlinear progressive wave equation (NPE) [McDonald and Kuperman, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 81, 1406-1417 (1987)] is expressed in a form to accommodate changes in the ambient atmospheric density, pressure, and sound speed as the time-stepping computati

Attenuation which is linear in frequency (as opposed to quadratic as for laminar viscosity) occurs in porous media wave propagation and biomedical applications. Straightforward use of Fourier transforms for frequency-linear attenuation violates causa

The nonlinear progressive wave equation [McDonald and Kuperman, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 81, 1406–1417 (1987)] is expressed in a form to accommodate Hertzian nonlinearity of order n=3∕2 typical of granular media. Stability of self-similar plane weak s

Perturbation theory for ocean acoustic modal group speed responses to small environmental changes is investigated with regard to its applicability to ocean acoustic tomography. Assuming adiabaticity, the inverse problem for each vertical eigenmode is

The nonlinear progressive-wave equation (NPE) model has been reformulated for wider propagation angle accuracy. The wide angle NPE results from range-integrating the second order time domain nonlinear wave equation rather than reducing it to a first

An adiabatic mode solution is derived for azimuthally advected gravity waves. Horizontal variations in the medium are assumed to be sufficiently gradual so that the coupling of energy between modes can be neglected. The wind speed is assumed to be sm

Excitation of acoustic radiation into the air from a low-frequency point source under water is investigated using plane wave expansion of the source spectrum and Rayleigh reflection/transmission coefficients. Expressions are derived for the acoustic

A hybrid treatment for wide-angle paraxial propagation that includes effects of both sediment dispersion and weak nonlinearity has been developed. A Fourier transform approach is used to combine effects of refraction, diffraction, and sediment disper

Ocean acoustic mode coupling matrix elements are investigated assuming weak range dependence in both the sound‐speed profile and bathymetry. The range‐dependent environmental variables are taken as known, and explicit integral expressions for the
