Fun and interesting images in acoustics

Here you will (future tense here) find some fun images from my research.

I’ve worked with artist Lindsay Olson. She went on a cruise with Dr. Jennifer Miksis-Olds for the ADEON project, and made art about passive acoustics, active acoustics, and had fun at sea. Surprisingly, there are equations in the art, including the wave equation, passive sonar equation, and active sonar equation. Lindsay also happens to be my mom, and it was fun working together.

I hope that someday the Helmholz-Kirchhoff integral equation, \begin{align} p(\mathbf{r}_p) = p_i(\mathbf{r}_p) + \int G_k(\mathbf{r}_s,\mathbf{r}_p) \frac{\partial p(\mathbf{r}_s)}{\partial n_s} - \frac{\partial G_k(\mathbf{r}_s,\mathbf{r}_p)}{\partial n_s} p(\mathbf{r}_s) \, \textrm{d}S_s\, , \end{align} becomes art, but it’s probably a long shot.
