Absorption of Finite-Amplitude Waves

  • Chapter
High-Intensity Ultrasonic Fields

Part of the book series: Ultrasonic Technology ((ULTE))

Abstract

Normally in acoustics one is concerned with sound waves of small amplitude in the sense that the perturbations elicited by these waves in the equilibrium state of the medium are small. The propagation of such waves is described in terms of approximate equations derived by linearization of the hydrodynamic equations and equation of state. This, the so-called linear-acoustical approximation, proves inadequate for the case of sound waves of large intensity, which are being encountered on a growing scale in present-day engineering.
