Elastic wave scattering from an acoustically rigid or soft object is studied and compared with the acoustic wave scattering. The behavior of phases as well as magnitudes of partial waves and their total summation of scattered wave are numerically analyzed and discussed. The effect of mode conversion, which occurs between longitudinal and transversal waves in elastic wave scattering. on the magnitudes and phases of scattered waves is identified.

The electromechanical reciprocity identity is introduced to relate the voltage at the terminals of a transducer to the acoustic wavefields scattered from the specimen. The voltage at the terminals of the transducer is expressed as an integral equation in terms of the displacement and stress of the incident and scattered waves on the closed surface enclosing the scatterer. The equation is used to relate the voltage at the terminals of an acoustic microscope's transducer to the acoustic wavefields at the interface between the specimen and the coupling fluid. The voltage calculated using the integral equation is compared with the experimental result.

Propagation of elastic surface waves in anisotropic media is considered in this study. An analytical technique is proposed to study the scattering of surface waves at the interface between two anisotropic quarter-spaces. The Green's function technique is used to derive a system of equations which can determine the scattering coefficients at the interface. A numerical study is carried out and the trade-offs between the material anisotropy and inhomogeneity are studied.

본 연구에서는 유한요소법(FEM)을 이용하여 압전 수중음향센서의 모델링 및 음향특성을 해석하였다. 압전 복합구조 수중음향센서의 해석에서 기본적인 압전-탄성 구조물과 유체-구조물의 연성해석을 위한 유한요소 정식화를 하였으며 무한영역의 음향유체를 처리하기 위하여 IWEE(Infinite Wave Envelop Element)를 도입하였다. Topilz형 수중음향센서를 수중 산란체로 볼 경우 입사파가 산란체의 표면을 가진할 때 산란체로부터 발생되는 산란파는 IWEE로 인하여 무한 유체영역에서의 산란파의 감소특성을 갖게되어 무한영역을 유한영역으로 나눈 인위적인 경계에서 반사가 일어나지 않게 되므로 산란파의 음압을 정확히 구할 수 있었다. 또한, 이러한 산란해석을 바탕으로 입사파에 대한 음향센서 내부의 전기적 응답특성인 RVS(Receiving Voltage Signal)를 구하였다. 이러한 일련의 연구 과정들은 소나(SONAR) 시스템을 정확히 해석하고 음향특성을 예측하는 데 큰 도움이 될 것이다.

Based on reflected and transmitted waves by a single step bottom, a new model of scatterer method is constructed which can be used to calculate wave transformation over a multi-step topography. The approximate results are tested by comparison with the more accurate results obtained from EFEM presented by Kirby and Dalrymple(1983). In the case of plane-wave approximation, solutions of the scatterer method and the EFEM are the same. Results obtained by the scatterer method with non-propagating modes are much better, in terms of phase for the calculated reflection and transmission coefficients, than those by plane-wave approximation. As the effect of non-propagating modes decreases, solutions of the scatterer method become closer to those of the EFEM.

Based on the recently developed resonance scattering theory for elastic waves, a relationship between the stress components, which may be measured using ultrasonic transducers, of partial waves scattered from cylindrical fluid scatterer, cavity, and resonance scatterer has been derived. The computed resonance scattered stresses exhibit frequency behaviors similar to the corresponding scattering coefficients: particularly, abrupt changes in phase by 180°near the resonant frequencies. By studying the behavior of pressure in the fluid scatterer, the physics of the theory has been further understood. Using the method studied and developed in this paper, nondestructive characterization of fluid inclusions in elastic media is expected to become more reliable.

The analytic solution of wave scattering of monochromatic waves on a pile breakwater by an eigenfunction expansion method is extended to the case of directional irregular waves. The scattering wave spectrum and the force spectrum can be expressed from the reflection coefficient, transmission coefficient and the wave forces obtained from changing frequencies and incident angles in monochromatic waves. By numerical integration of 2-dimensional spectrum which is function of frequencies and incident angles, the representative values for the scattered waves and wave forces are obtained and the dependence of the transmission coefficients and wave forces on the directional distribution function, the principal wave direction, the submergence depth, and porosity is analyzed.

The pressure waves scattered by an infinite cylindrical cavity filled with air in a h0mogeneous medium have been calculated for the incident plane pressure waves. For ka = 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 10 and 20, the scattered pressure waves are plotted., where k is the wave number and a is the radius of the cylindrical hole. As an indicator of the directivity of the scattering pattern, we have defined the angle at which the magnitude of the scattered pressure wave decreases by a half(6 dB) with respect to that of the forward peak scattered pressure wave. This angle depends strongly on the values of ka and the distance r, and the angle can be used for the detection of the location and the size of the cavity in a homogeneous medium.

The purpose of the present work is to derive the reflection and transmission coefficients of $S_0\;and\;A_0$ mode Lamb waves in relation to the geometry of a rectangular notch when the waves propagate across the notch in an elastic plate. Firstly, the excitable modes of the Lamb wave were analyzed with respect to the plate thickness. The scattering phenomena were divided into three independent processes according to the boundary shape of the notch and the direction of the wave propagation. Linear equations for each process were derived with corresponding free or continuous boundary conditions to analyze the scattered waves. By the rule of linear superposition, the waves scattered at each process were summed for each mode. Then the steady-state reflection and transmission coefficients of the scattered waves were determined so that the difference of energy flux between the incident and the scattered waves would remain within 4%.
