This work presents a study of scattering phenomena in shear flows and its application to impedance walls. These flows are described by a dimensionless shear layer thickness and a mean Mach number. Both transmission through a given shear layer and reflection on an acoustic treatment are studied. We show that the dimensionless thickness of the shear layer may be an interesting tool to reach perfect absorption or large lateral displacement of a Gaussian beam.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
