“…They follow either the Waterman and Truell 24,27 or Fikioris and Waterman 25,28,29 formulations, expressing the scattered field either as a multipole expansion, based on the Rayleigh partial-wave method, 27,28 or through the transition-matrix description of Varadan. 26,29 While two of the studies apply to nonviscous fluids, 27,29 the other is applicable to cylinders in solids, 28 considering both longitudinal and shear wave propagation. Maurel 30 took a slightly different approach, applying the Born approximation to terminate the scattering field equations, rather than applying a closure assumption, and using a Green's function description rather than the multipole expansion for the scattered fields.…”
