Abstract

We analyze the state of the problem of the formation of radiated and scattered acoustic beams in application to the development of a methodology for studying the information aspects of hydroacoustics and nondestructive control. We discuss the problems of the selective generation of characteristic vibrations of elastic objects in a deformable medium using sharply directed acoustic impulses. We study the problem of posing and methods of solving a certain class of inverse problems of scattering theory.
