Abstract:

The objective of this study is to further the understanding of volume and surface scattering effects on propagation. This report consists primarily of seven reprints Their titles are Multiple scattering by finite regular arrays of resonators High-frequency reflection and scattering by multicomponent rough surface distributions Comments on resonant systems of scatters Moments of the Percus-Yevick hard-sphere correlation function Coherent propagation of sound in correlated distributions of resonant spherical scatters Regular polygonal arrays of resonant scatters and Polydisperse scattering theory and comparison with data for red blood cells.
