Advanced Structural Dynamics and Acoustics 13.811

The document discusses acoustic wave equations and their solutions. It introduces the acoustic wave equation derived from principles of conservation of mass and the equation of motion for a linearly elastic fluid. Potential wave equations are presented in terms of velocity and displacement potentials. Plane wave solutions to the Helmholtz equation are discussed for homogeneous media. The radiation of sound from a point source in an unbounded homogeneous medium is examined. Green's functions and Green's theorem are presented as tools for solving acoustic wave equations.
