TY - JOUR PY - 2002// TI - The effect of a coastline on the underwater penetration of sonic booms JO - Journal of the Acoustical Society of America A1 - Garrelick, Joel SP - 610 EP - 613 VL - 111 IS - 1 Pt 2 N2 - A simplified analysis is presented for the underwater noise levels from a steady supersonic flight traversing a coastline. The effect of the coast is to introduce a propagating noise component that does not exhibit the classic evanescent attenuation with depth for flights subsonic in water. Expressions are given to estimate the boundary of, and levels within, the coastal region where this component dominates. An illustrative example is presented.
