摘要:
Experiments to measure downslope sound propagation in a shallow water wedge with a penetrable bottom have been conducted in an indoor tank. Mode filtering has been applied to the signals received on a vertical array to extract the waveforms of individual normal modes. Results show that the normal modes of the wedge propagate with wave fronts which are curved into arcs of circles centered on the wedge apex. These wedge modes propagate downslope without coupling and are therefore the true normal modes of the wedge. Conventional normal modes with vertical wave fronts show coupling effects for slopes of 2° and higher. The group velocities of the wedge modes are strongly dependent on the slope and water depth and are in agreement with adiabatic normal mode theory. Modes which are not trapped in the water depth at the source can become trapped when the water depth is sufficient to support them.
