We deal with the time-harmonic acoustic waves scattered by a large number of small holes, of maximal radius $a, a<<1$, arbitrary (i.e. not necessarily periodically) distributed in a bounded part of a homogeneous background. We show that as…
When a wave, such as sound or light, scatters within a densely packed particulate, it can be rescattered many times between the particles, which is called multiple scattering. Multiple scattering can be unavoidable when: trying to use sound…
