Abstract:
Reducing the sound reflected by objects under water and thus their “visibility” is a design challenge and requires detailed information about the geometry- and material-dependent backscattering behavior of the structure.Using various numerical methods and measurements, the radiation-relevant areas of objects are to be determined using generic model examples, taking into account different types of sound sources.The contribution briefly presents the methods used (boundary element method, ray tracing and hotspot detection), analyzes the results of numerical simulations and compares them with corresponding measurements.
