Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The parametric array is a nonlinear transduction mechanism that generates narrow, nearly sidelobe free beams of low frequency sound, through the mixing and interaction of high frequency sound waves, effectively overcoming the diffraction limit (a kind of spatial ''uncertainty principle'') associated with linear acoustics. Parametric arrays can be formed in water, air, and earth materials/rock. Priority for discovery and explanation of the parametric array owes to Peter J. Westervelt, winner of the Lord Rayleigh Medal, although important experimental work was contemporaneously underway in the former Soviet Union. According to Muir [16, p. 554] and Albers, the concept for the parametric array occurred to Dr. Westervelt while he was stationed at the London, England, branch office of the Office of Naval Research in 1951.
