| Abstract: | In studying the multiple scattering of acoustic waves by distributed discrete scatterers, the 'two-exterior' T-matrix or the modified T-matrix is needed. In this paper, the modified T-matrix formulae for a scatterer of arbitrary shape are derived, based on Huygen's principle and the method of optimal truncation (MOOT), respectively. Analytical expressions are given for the modified T-matrix elements of a spheroid in the low-frequency limit. The agreement with the existing results is shown to be exact to the given order of ka. It is also shown that the results based on Huygen's principle are merely the special cases of those based on MOOT. |
