Overview

The large range of applications of acoustical methods and techniques in modern society demands a thorough exploration of the nonlinear properties of sound wave propagation in different media and environments, and of the effects caused by nonlinear interaction of sound and medium. The great range of interesting physical phenomena which occur in nonlinear acoustics helps stimulate the extensive research in the field.
