Abstract(summary):

Results from a workshop organized in 2006 to assess the state of the art in target scatter modeling are presented. The problem set includes free-field scenarios as well as scattering from targets that are proud, half-buried, or fully buried in the sediment. The targets are spheres and cylinders, of size O(1 m), which are insonified by incident plane waves in the low-frequency band 0.1-10 kHz. In all cases, the quantity of interest is the far-field target strength. The numerical techniques employed fall within three classes: (i) finite-element (FE) methods and (ii) boundary-element (BE) techniques, with different approaches to computing the far field via discretizations of the Helmholtz-Kirchhoff integral in each case, and (iii) semianalytical methods. Reference solutions are identified for all but one of the seven test problems considered. Overall, FE- and BE-based models emerge as those being capable of treating a wider class of problems in terms of target geometry, with the FE method having the additional advantage of being able to deal with complex internal structures without much additional effort. These capabilities are of value for the study of experimental scenarios, which can essentially be envisioned as variations of the problem set presented here.
