dc.description.abstractA variational method is used to calculate the energy diffracted into the various orders produced when a plane acoustic wave is incident on a periodic, pressure‐release surface of saw‐tooth shape. The results of companion experiments performed with a cork‐covered surface, using techniques of underwater sound are also presented. The relative energies reflected in various orders are plotted as a function of the ratio of acoustic wavelength to spatial period of the surface for a range of angles of incidence. Theory and experiment agree within 10% for all angles of incidence examined and for a large part of the frequency range covered.en_US
