Аннотация:The propagation of nonlinear spherically diverging N-waves in atmosphere was studied experimentally and theoretically. The relative effects of nonlinear, dissipation, and relaxation phenomena on the N-wave duration and amplitude were investigated based on the numerical solutions of the modified Burgers equation. It is shown that, under the experimental conditions, the duration of a pulse increases mainly due to nonlinear propagation, whereas the amplitude depends on the combined effects of nonlinearity, dissipation, and relaxation. The frequency response of the measuring system is obtained. The calibration of the amplitude and duration of the experimental waveforms is performed based on the nonlinear lengthening of the propagating pulse. The results of numerical modeling show good agreement with experimental data.
