Abstract Near periodic arrays of discontinuities have been predicted to have a significant impact on the acoustic properties of elastic structures. The discontinuities in the elastic properties of the structure produce a characteristic signature in the acoustic scattering cross section of the structure via two distinct mechanisms; a direct interaction producing acoustic Bragg scattering, and an indirect interaction wherein the discontinuities fundamentally alter the free waves of the structure. The locally propagating states of the pseudo-periodic system are Floquet or Bloch wave packets and the locations of the highlights in the cross section may be determined simply from the Bloch wavenumber via a phase matching argument. Predicting the resulting scattering levels requires an understanding of the propagation of the Bloch wave packets in the finite, pseudo-periodic structure. In the case of a thin ribbed cylindrical shell or plate this scattering mechanism can arise from flexural waves, and recent experimental results obtained at Naval Research Laboratory have demonstrated the importance of both this mechanism and Bragg scattering on the acoustic far field over a broad frequency range. In this paper, these results and the underlying theoretical development will be discussed.
