Accomplishments
  • Calculated range of energy dissipation rates for various non-tapered baffle spacings to be tested using an energy dissipation rate of 0.4 mW/kg (various increments around the spacing for 0.4 mW/kg).
    • Using 0.4 mW/kg because that is the energy dissipation rate used by the Design team
