Abstract

Nonlinear sound waves from a uniformly moving source with dimensions smaller than the wavelength of the emitted sound are investigated. They are described by spherical Burgers’ equations with parameters depending on the source velocity V and the direction angle θ from the source to the point of observation. It is seen that for certain V and θ values, both for V less than and greater than the sound velocity in the medium, shock waves occur, which do not occur in nonlinear waves from a fixed sound source.
