Nonlinear acoustics
by Mark F. Hamilton, David T. Blackstock
Category: Science

This introductory text on the theory and applications of nonlinear acoustics, develops the theory on nonlinear acoustics from physical principles. The first half of the book develops the physical concepts, mathematical models and classical methods of solution that form the theoretical framework of nonlinear acoustics. Benchmark experiences are described and many applications are discussed in detail. The second half covers special topics and applications, both theory and experiment.
