A simple model in the form of a layer with uniformly distributed mono-size spherical bubbles is considered. The mathematical model of the pressure wave’s propagation in a bubbly liquid layer is constructed using the linear non-dissipative wave equation and assuming that oscillations of a single bubble satisfy the Rayleigh-Plesset equation. The models of the phase sound speed, changes of resonant frequency of bubbles and damping coefficients in a bubbly liquid are compared and discussed. The relations between transmitted and reflected waves and their second harmonic amplitudes are analyzed. A numerical analysis is carried out for different environmental parameters such as layer thicknesses and values of the volume fraction as well as for different parameters of generated signals. Examples of results of the numerical modeling are presented.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Theoretical Studies of Nonlinear Generation Efficiency in a Bubble Layer}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/101601/PDF/05_paper.pdf}, doi={10.2478/v10168-012-0037-0}, keywords={nonlinear acoustics, bubble layer, transmitted and reflected waves}, }
