β¦ Synopsis
A model is proposed to assess the transient ultrasonic field radiated by a planar transducer and scattered by a target with a known dimension and geometry. The approach is based on the hypothesis of linear acoustics for a perfectly rigid reflector immersed in an isotropic, homogeneous and lossless fluid. The detected acoustic pressure is explained in terms of the plane and edge waves. In order to determine the boundary effects on the detected pressure, targets of different sizes were used in our simulations. An experimental verification of the proposed model is presented for the case of circular planar targets with different radii made of duralumin and immersed in distilled water. In general, the theoretically predicted results are in good agreement with the experimentally measured results.

The impulse response due to a rigid-elastic coupling of two half-planes is considered. Scattered and surface waves under heavy fluid loading limits are calculated. It is found that the signljicant contribution to the3eld comes from the surface wave, which travels along the elastic plate, and the edg
## Abstract In 141 newborn infants ultrasonic measurement of liver area was performed on the third postnatal day. The liver area was represented by a cross section of the liver at the level where the portal vein entered the organ. There was a linear increase in liver area from 26.8 cm^2^ at 37 week
In this paper we outline and apply a procedure to evaluate sound "elds in a concert hall which involve scattered re#ections. We adopted an experimental method and used a 1/10 scale model of the concert hall. Arrays of circular columns were placed in front of its walls to act as the scattering obstac
