A semi-analytical solution for viscothermal wave propagation in narrow gaps with arbitrary boundary conditions. [PDF]
, 2006 Previous research has shown that viscothermal wave propagation in narrow gaps can efficiently be described by means of the low reduced frequency model. For simple geometries and boundary conditions, analytical solutions are available.
