Coherent Reflection of Acoustic Plane Wave From a Random Sea floor

Shen, Chien-Ou 09 August 2001 (has links)
The problem of coherent reflecton of an acoustic plane wave from a random seabed consisting of a randomly inhomogeneous sediment layer overlying a uniform elastic sea floor is considered in this analysis. The random perturbation in the sediment layer is attributable to the sound-speed variations, resulting in volume scattering due to medium inhomogenieties. An approach based upon perturbation theory, combining with a derived Green's function for a slab bounded above and below respectively by a fluid and an elastic half space ,is employed to obtain an analytic solution for the coherent field in the sediment layer. A linear system is then constructed to facilitate the analysis of the coherent reflection field. The results of the coherent reflection coefficient for various sediment randomness, frequency , sediment thickness, and sea floor elasticity have been numerically generated and analyzed. It was found that the higher/larger size of randomness , frequency, thickness, and shear-wave speed, the lower the coherent reflection. Physical interpretation for the characteristics of various results were provided.
