The following development of the well-known "vertical modes and horizontal rays" approach for acoustic waves propagation in shallow water, introduced in different works, is studied. In this approach we study so-called space-time horizontal…
For over 70 years it has been assumed that scalar wave propagation in (ensemble-averaged) random particulate materials can be characterised by a single effective wavenumber. Here, however, we show that there exist many effective…
In many applications, and in particular in seismology, realistic propagation media disperse and attenuate waves. This dissipative behavior can be taken into account by using a viscoacoustic propagation model, which incorporates a complex…
Acoustic waves are those waves which travel with the speed of sound through a medium. H. Lamb has derived a cutoff frequency for stratified and isothermal medium for the propagation of acoustic waves. In order to find the cutoff frequency…

Multiscale problems are computationally costly to solve by direct simulation because the smallest scales must be represented over a domain determined by the largest scales of the problem. We have developed and analyzed new numerical methods…

The goal of this paper is two-fold. First, to establish a tractable model for the underwater acoustic channel useful for network optimization in terms of convexity. Second, to propose a network coding based lower bound for transmission…
The evolution of acoustic waves can be evaluated in two ways: either as a temporal, or a spatial propagation. Propagating in space provides the considerable advantage of being able to handle dispersion and propagation across interfaces with…
High-frequency wave propagation in near-inertial wave shear has been considered fundamental in setting the spectral character of the oceanic internal wave continuum and for transporting energy to wave-breaking. We compare idealized ray…
In shallow-water waveguides a propagating field can be decomposed over three kinds of modes: the propagating modes, the radiating modes and the evanescent modes. In this paper we consider the propagation of a wave in a randomly perturbed…
