| Summary: | High-resolution sound propagation measurements were made on a 1/10000 th-scale model of the Santa Lucia Escarpment, located off the Southern California coast. The tank was modified from previous experiments using a rubber coating on the tank bottom. High frequency, high resolution, Transmission Loss measurements were made on the SFTF range, Dania Florida. The Parabolic Equation Model RAM was used to validate these measurement sets. A new approach to account for shear wave effects on the Transmission Loss for the RAM model was developed. Using this new approach, the scaled low frequency Santa Lucia measurements showed excellent agreement with the RAM calculated TL, but there were discrepancies in the predictions of the high frequency at sea measurements at ranges greater than 1 km. | |
