Abstract A new approach to the numerical solution of normal mode problems in underwater acoustics is presented, in which the corresponding normal mode problem is transformed to the problem of solving a dynamic system. Three applications are considered: (1) the broad band normal mode problem; (2) the range-dependent problem with perturbation proportional to the range parameter; and (3) the evolution of the normal mode with environmental parameters. A numerical simulation for a broad band problem is performed, and the calculated eigenvalues have good agreement with those obtained by the standard normal mode code KRAKAN.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
