On the theory of multiple scattering of sound waves by spherical particles in liquid and elastic media

Abstract Two independent systems of equations are derived for describing the scalar and vector potentials of the sound field in a liquid or elastic medium containing discrete inhomogeneities.

Abstract

Abstract Two independent systems of equations are derived for describing the scalar and vector potentials of the sound field in a liquid or elastic medium containing discrete inhomogeneities. One of the systems determines the sound field as the sum of the fields scattered by the particles according to the law of scattering by a single particle with the oscillation amplitudes governed by the properties of the inhomogeneous medium. The other system determines the sound field as the sum of the scattered fields formed in the inhomogeneous medium with the oscillation amplitudes of a particle in a homogeneous medium. Expressions relating the fields that occur in a medium consisting of N particles to the fields in a medium consisting of N − 1 particles are proposed. These expressions may simplify and diversify the methods used for computer simulation of sound fields with the aim to verify the calculations. The results of the study are valid for any particle concentrations under the condition that the scattering by a single particle is determined by its monopole, dipole, and rotary oscillations.
