TY - JOUR PY - 2015// TI - Modeling explosion generated Scholte waves in sandy sediments with power law dependent shear wave speed JO - Journal of the Acoustical Society of America A1 - Soloway, Alexander G.

SP - EL370 EP - EL370 VL - 138 IS - 4 N2 - Experimental measurements of Scholte waves from underwater explosions collected off the coast of Virginia Beach, VA in shallow water are presented. It is shown here that the dispersion of these explosion-generated Scholte waves traveling in the sandy seabed can be modeled using a power-law dependent shear wave speed profile and an empirical source model that determines the pressure time-series at 1 m from the source as a function of TNT-equivalent charge weight.
