TLDR
One-dimensional waves in fluids as discussed by the authors were used to describe sound waves and water waves in the literature, as well as the internal wave and the water wave in fluids, and they can be classified into three classes: sound wave, water wave, and internal wave.

Internal wave beam propagation in non-uniform stratifications

TL;DR: In this paper, a combined theoretical and experimental study of the propagation of internal wave beams in non-uniform density stratifications was performed, and the results were also used to explain recent field observations of a vanishing wave beam at the Keana Ridge, Hawaii.

Acoustic Models of Sound Production and Propagation

TL;DR: In this paper, sound production and propagation in whales and dolphins are modeled based on physics and mathematics, and the limits of intensity and frequency that are physically possible given the anatomy of a species.

Cochlea's graded curvature effect on low frequency waves.

TL;DR: It is reported that increasing curvature redistributes wave energy density towards the cochlea's outer wall, affecting the shape of waves propagating on the membrane, particularly in the region where low frequency sounds are processed.

Internal waves generated by a moving sphere and its wake in a stratified fluid

TL;DR: In this article, the internal gravity waves and the turbulent wake of a sphere moving through stratified fluid were studied by the fluorescent dye technique, and it was observed that waves generated by the body are dominant only when F 4.5.

Streamline patterns and eddies in low-Reynolds-number flow

TL;DR: In this article, the streamlines of simple two-dimensional Stokes flows are studied and the results used both to understand and to predict the streamline of flows in more complicated geometries, in particular the streamslines of flows that contain eddies or regions of closed streamlines.
