I. Acoustic radiation and reflection from spheres. II. Some effects of thermal conduction and compressibility in the collapse of a spherical bubble in a liquid

This thesis presents the results of computations for four problems: two in the field of acoustics and two on the collapse of a cavity in a liquid. The first is an analysis of echoes from a solid homogeneous sphere in water, and demonstrates that the vibrations induced in the solid material by incide...
