This image is a simulation of a kind of acoustic wave called a Rayleigh-Bloch wave. The stripes of light and dark areas represent the “peaks" and “troughs" of the waves and are shaped by their ...

The top layer represents the location of the sound source and the path of sound propagation (A). The bottom layers represent convergence zones with different sound propagation paths (B-F). Sound waves ...
