Underwater Noise Generated By Offshore Pile Driving: A Pile-Soil-Water Vibroacoustic Model Based On A Mode Matching Method

In this paper, a pile-water-soil model is developed for the prediction of sound generated due to impact piling. The complete model consists of two modules: i) a near-source module aiming at the accurate description of the pile-water-soil interaction together with the sound generation and propagation in the vicinity of the pile; and ii) a far...
