1 Introdu tion
This paper deals with the numeri al simulation of a ousti wave propagation
inaxisymmetri waveguideswithvarying ross-se tionusingaWebster-Lokshin
model. Splittingthepipeinto pie esonwhi hthemodel oe ientsare nearly

realization of thepropagation by on atenatings attering matri es oftransfer
fun tions ( 2). These fun tions involve standarddierential and delay
opera-tors, as well aspseudo-dierentialoperators ofdiusive type,indu edby both

2 Deriving the model
2.1 A ousti model
A mono-dimensional model of the propagation of the a ousti pressure p in
axisymmetri waveguides in luding vis othermal losses on the wall has been
derived in [1, hap 1℄, assuming the quasi-spheri ity of isobars near the wall.
Dening in the Lapla e domain b
(z;s) = R (z)p(z;b s) where s is the Lapla e
variable,z isthe urvilinearordinatemeasuringthear lengthof thewall,and
R (z)istheradiusof theguide,theWebster-Lokshinmodelmaybewritten:
2 z b z (s) s 2 +2"(z) s 3 2 +(z) b z (s)=0: (1)
is thesound speed, (z)=R 00
(z)=R (z)the urvature, and"(z)= p 1 R 0 (z) 2 R(z)
quanties the ee t of the vis othermal losses. Note that ontant urvatures
