Abstract:Time-reversal focusing is a technique for focusing energy both spatially and temporally to a single desired point. First studied in fluid media, additional studies have demonstrated the applicability of time-reversal focusing to solid media and elastic wave propagation. A significant difference between time-reversal and other focusing methods is time-reversal focusings immunity to the variation of wave speeds and the effects of scattering objects within the medium. In the detection of buried objects, this feat… Show more
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.
