This book discusses both fundamental and practical aspects of electroacoustic tranducers and arrays used for generating and receiving underwater sound in commercial and naval applications. It provides current information intended to aid those working in this field and teach those entering it. The book describes the six major types of electroacoustic transducers and the latest methods of tranducer analysis and design, including analysis of nonlinear effects and information on modern transducer materials. Many different transducer designs are analyzed and described, including novel designs such as the hybrid transducer. The problems that occur when large numbers of transducers are used together in arrays, such as acoustic interactions in transmitting arrays and noise limitations in receiving arrays, are also discussed in detail.
