A Note on Point Source Diffraction by a Wedge
نویسنده
چکیده
The object of this paper is to give new expressions for the wave field produced when a time harmonic point source is diffracted by a wedge with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions on its faces. The representation of the total field is expressed in terms of quadratures of elementary functions, rather than Bessel functions, which is usual in the literature. An analogous expression is given for the three-dimensional free-space Green’s function.

A Green's function for diffraction by a rational wedge
In this paper we derive an expression for the point source Green's function for the reduced wave equation, valid in an angular sector whose angle is equal to a rational multiple of 77. This Green's function can be used to find new expressions for the field produced by the diffraction of a spherical wave by a wedge whose angle can be expressed as a rational multiple of n. The expressions obtaine...
متن کاملSession 3pPAb: General Physical Acoustics II 3pPAb3. Influence of reflecting walls on edge diffraction simulation in geometrical acoustics
Edge diffraction can be introduced into Geometrical Acoustics mainly by three models: detour-based, energetic and wave-based diffraction models. In the past, we thoroughly compared Maekawa's detour law, the uncertainty relation based diffraction method and the secondary source model by the example of edge diffraction of a single wedge. However, the influence of the wedge shape has not yet been ...
متن کاملDiffraction by a right-angled impedance wedge: an edge source formulation.
This paper concerns the frequency domain problem of diffraction of a plane wave incident on an infinite right-angled wedge on which impedance (absorbing) boundary conditions are imposed. It is demonstrated that the exact Sommerfeld-Malyuzhinets contour integral solution for the diffracted field can be transformed to a line integral over a physical variable along the diffracting edge. This integ...
متن کاملNumerical Study on Improvement of Hydrofoil Performance using Vortex Generators (RESEARCH NOTE)
In this paper the effects of rigid triangular passive vortex generators on a hydrofoil were investigated numerically. In the first step using the Finite Volume Method the bare hydrofoil were modeled and the results of lift and drag coefficients were validated using experimental data. In the next step the hydrofoil armed with vortex generators was modeled and its effect on the hydrofoil perfo...
متن کاملThe Pattern of Caspian Sea Water Penetration Into Anzali Wetland: Introduction of a Salt Wedge
Measuring salinity of water at different depths along six transacts at the mouth of the wetland and along five tributaries connecting the wetland to the sea the extent of Caspian Sea penetration into Anzali Wetland was determined. The results demonstrated a depth-dependent salinity gradient extending up to 10 kilometres into the wetland. A pattern of saltwater and freshwater interface is presen...
