Book Description
Highlights the Physical Acoustics Branch in the Acoustics Division at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in Washington, D. C. Explains that the branch is dedicated to understanding and exploiting the physics of the interactions between sound, elastic vibrations, materials, and structures. Their research areas include structural acoustics, radiation, and scattering of fluid-loaded structures, wave propagation and scattering in elastic solids and saturated poro-elastic media, thin-film phonon physics of nano-structures, structural actuation and fiber optic sensing, implosion acoustics, acoustic transduction physics, and inverse scattering and target identification.
