Abstract
A new approach has been proposed to calculate the sound pressure field radiated or scattered from slender bodies. The theoretical analysis is based upon mathematical singular perturbation methods leading to the so-called slender-body approximation. The theory provides a practical method to compute the sound field as it allows a great simplification in the geometrical representation of the body surface and a reduced computation load. This paper summarizes the main results obtained with this approximation at the present state of investigation.
