BEM/ FEM/FD
NEW: Method of
Characteristics, 2D-MC:
Matlab
program
for
Time dependent
solution of the
Euler
and continuity equations with adiabatic condition in a waveguide
with a homogeneous fluid layer overlying
a rigid bottom, using
the
method of Characteristics with Semi-Lagrange scheme, which is
not
constrained
by Courant-Friedrichs- Lewy (CFL) condition.
This version is, however, restricted to CFL = 1. Sample output. Users guide. ZIP-file.

Solution of the Helmholtz

overlying
a rigid bottom, using the finite element technique. The above
approach
is used
to simulate the propagation of sound waves due to a harmonic point
source
placed in the waveguide. Download FENL (Nikolaos Kampanis, FORTH,

and modes; Displacement and sound speed realizations. Manual in MS-Word and the zipped source code (Richard Evans, SAIC).
CAFI:
Computation
of Acoustic Fluctuations from Internal
waves: This code calculates statistical effects of internal waves:
both
their effects within the geometrical optics approximation, and
their
diffractive effects. These internal-wave calculations are done by
means
of
corrections to deterministic ray theory derived from path-integral
techniques. Manual Source code . Code is
written by Stan Flatte and Galina Rovner with the current update
(Sep 2012) from Rex Andrew ( Rex

Comprehensive
Nuclear-Test-Ban
Treaty
The Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty is monitored
by the Comprehensive
Nuclear-Test-Ban
Treaty Organization,
a political organization that monitors data continuously flowing
from
321
seismic, hydroacoustic and infrasound stations around the world.
Based
on these
data, a list of possible explosions is created, partly by
automatic
processing
and partly by human analysts.
