Identification of reflection, diffraction and scattering effects in real acoustic flow fields by S. Weyna

“…In contrast to the classically described acoustical fields with acoustical pressure distributions (scalar effects), the graphical presentation of the acoustic energy flow in real-life acoustic fields as a vector mapping, can explain many particulars concerning the areas in which it is difficult to make a theoretical analysis (direct and near field, vortex flow, effects of scattering on obstacles, reflection on partitions, efficiency of acoustics barrier, etc.). …”
