1. Computation of Underwater Acoustic Wave Propagation Using the WaveHoltz Iteration Method
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : In this thesis, we explore a novel approach to solving the Helmholtz equation,the WaveHolz iteration method. This method aims to overcome some ofthe difficulties with solving the Helmholtz equation by providing a highlyparallelizable iterative method based on solving the time-dependent Waveequation.

2. An Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian Finite Element Method for Shock Wave Propagation: Validating Simulations of Underwater Explosions
University essay from KTH/Numerisk analys, NAAbstract : Underwater explosions are often modeled with Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) Finite Element Methods. The objective of this thesis is to validate the simulation method, with respect to the propagating shock wave. A two-dimensional axisymmetric model of a spherical TNT charge submerged in water is simulated using LS-DYNA. READ MORE

3. GPU Accelerated Ray-tracing for Simulating Sound Propagation in Water
University essay from Linköpings universitet/DatorteknikAbstract : The propagation paths of sound in water can be somewhat complicated due to the fact that the sound speed in water varies with properties such as water temperature and pressure, which has the effect of curving the propagation paths. This thesis shows how sound propagation in water can be simulated using a ray-tracing based approach on a GPU using Nvidia’s OptiX ray-tracing engine. READ MORE

5. Development of an automatic autonomous sensor carrier for sound profile measurement in deep sea
University essay from KTH/Marina systemAbstract : This Master Thesis main purpose was to answer the question "Can you measure or calculate the velocity sound profile while performing a bathrymetric survey in an offshore environment like the North Sea, without any interaction nor modification of the existing equipment?".This, since today underwater surveys are a complex and expensive operation to perform where you either are mapping the sea floor or on a searching mission for a sunken wrecks.
