Wave Propagation and Underwater Acoustics

A "Workshop on Wave Propagation and Underwater Acoustics"
was held from November 19 to November 21, 1974 in Mystic, Connecticut.

From Author and Editor:

Among the twenty-one lectures at the workshop was a set of six surveys of various aspects of the field. Those surveys were presented by five members and one former visiting member of the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, New York University. They were prepared with the intention that they would be expanded, combined and published together as a general survey of the mathematical theory of underwater sound propagation. These notes are the result. They would not have appeared without the untiring effort of Professor John S. Papadakis, who  guided them through the editorial process. I wish to thank him particularly for this. I also thank the entire committee for  having asked me to present a set of survey lectures, and for then agreeing to let me share the presentation with my  colleagues.
