The report presents a series of specific theoretical studies directed toward the solution of jet noise generation and radiation, upstream noise radiation and combustion noise generation. Three theories are presented. Lilley's work is a new theory of jet noise generation, based on identification of acoustic and source generation terms. The acoustic 'converted wave equation' derived includes the Pridmore-Brown/Mungur shear refraction term. Plumblee presents a theoretical analysis and numerical solution techniques for solving for the radiation field from a source within a jet flow and specifically deals with radiation from an acoustic distribution initally specified at the end of a circular exhaust duct termination through the jet flow to the surrounding medium. Finally, Strahle presents a theory on afterburner type combustion noise generation and radiation. Order of magnitude analyses are made in an attempt to estimate acoustic power levels and refraction effects are also investigated. (Author).

The book provides a survey of numerical methods for acoustics, namely the finite element method (FEM) and the boundary element method (BEM). It is the first book summarizing FEM and BEM (and optimization) for acoustics. The book shows that both methods can be effectively used for many other cases, FEM even for open domains and BEM for closed ones. Emphasis of the book is put on numerical aspects and on treatment of the exterior problem in acoustics, i.e. noise radiation.
