Acoustic invisibility in turbulent fluids by optimised cloaking

Acoustic invisibility of a cloaking system in turbulent fluids is poorly understood. Here we show that evident scattering would appear in turbulent wakes due to the submergence of a classical cloaking device. The inherent physical mechanism is explained using our theoretical model, which eventually inspires us to develop an optimised cloaking approach. Both the near- and far-field scattered fields are examined using computational methods. The remarkably low scattering demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach, in particular for acoustic cloaking in turbulent fluids.
