Comparison of EMT and MST approaches in studying linear acoustics in bubbly liquid.
Two kinds of approaches have been used in literature to study the linear acoustics in a liquid-bubble mixture: The effective medium theory approach and the multiple scattering theory approach. Theoretical comparisons of mathematical formulations and intrinsic relations between these two approaches are given in this paper and show their consistency in dealing with the linear acoustics in bubbly liquids. Possible applications of these two methods are also generally discussed.
