Abstract

The problem of sound attenuation was studied by an absorbing wedge shaped barrier on finite impedance ground. The expression of the field diffracted by the edge of the absorbing wedge was adapted from a model where it is developed from the solution for plane wave incidence. The solution to the case of the line source in that model was elaborated by considering a wave spectrum decomposition of a cylindrical wave. The results show that the amplitude of the edge diffracted field increases for increasing wedge angle.
