Book Synopsis Nonlinear Acoustics - Fundamentals and Applications by : B.O. Enflo
Book excerpt: These are the proceedings of the 18th International Symposium on Nonlinear Acoustics (ISNA).The ISNA series, held once every three years, is the premier symposium devoted to the field of nonlinear acoustics. Nonlinear acoustical phenomena appear when the sound amplitude is sufficiently large. Then the sound wave is deformed and shocks and sound of new frequencies are created. Earthquake and sonic booms are undesired nonlinear acoustical phenomena; nondestructive testing and cancer sound beam therapy are useful nonlinear acoustical applications. This book is unique in bringing into relief the common physical foundation of so different phenomena and applications.
