| Abstract Note | This text is based on lectures given by the authors to students of the Physico?? Technical Institute in Moscow in the course of many years. Teaching mechan?? ics of continuous media to students in physics has some specific features. Un?? fortunately, the students rarely have enough time for this branch of science. Over a comparatively short period of time and without sophisticated mathe?? matics, the lecturer has to set forth the principal facts and methods of this rather important aspect of theoretical physics. The goal can be achieved only if the knowledge and intuition obtained by students in other courses has been mobilized efficiently. These observations have extensively been taken into account when classical as well as more contemporary and actively developing branches of mechanics of continua are considered. The theory of wave propagation is the most important topic in mechanics of continua for those who work in the field of physics and geophysics. That is why most attention is paid to this topic in the main text as well as in numerous exercises. The propagation of various kinds of hydrodynamic, magnetohydro?? dynamic, acoustic and seismic waves is considered in some detail. We begin with simple questions and proceed to more complicated ones. Accordingly, we treat the elasticity theory first. In the limits this appears to be simpler than the mechanics of fluids. For further study of each topic the reader will find references in the bibliography |

| Title | Fundamentals of Ocean Acoustics |
| Author(s) | Brekhovskikh, L;Lysanov, Y |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 1982. |
| Description | X, 252 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The continents of our planet have already been exploited to a great extent. Therefore man is turning his sight to the vast spaciousness of the ocean whose resources - mineral, biological, energetic, and others - are just beginning to be used. The ocean is being intensively studied. Our notions about the dynam?? ics of ocean waters and their role in forming the Earth's climate as well as about the structure of the ocean bottom have substantially changed during the last two decades. An outstanding part in this accelerated exploration of the ocean is played by ocean acoustics. Only sound waves can propagate in water over large distances. Practically all kinds of telemetry, communication, location, and re?? mote sensing of water masses and the ocean bottom use sound waves. Propa?? gating over thousands of kilometers in the ocean, they bring information on earthquakes, eruptions of volcanoes, and distant storms. Projects using acoustical tomography systems for exploration of the ocean are presently be?? ing developed. Each of these systems will allow us to determine the three-di?? mensional structure of water masses in regions as large as millions of square kilometers |
