Abstract
Sound propagation in monodisperse emulsions with arbitrary volume concentrations is studied theoretically using a cell model. It is assumed that emulsion cells are bounded by thin and imponderable rigid shells allowing realization of the minimum energy dissipation principle with viscous acoustic losses. Solutions covering many particular cases and wide parameter and variable ranges have been obtained. These solutions are suitable for studying acoustic properties of emulsions and suspensions, marine sediments, fogs, and smoke, as well as elastoviscous materials with solid or liquid inclusions, etc. Sound propagation and absorption in emulsions and suspensions are considered in more detail. The experimental data in the literature is compared.
