'''[[Acoustics|Acoustic]] attenuation''' is a measure of the [[energy]] loss of [[sound propagation]] in media. Most media have [[viscosity]], and are therefore not ideal media. When sound propagates in such media, there is always thermal consumption of energy caused by viscosity. For [[homogeneity|inhomogeneous media]], besides media viscosity, acoustic [[scattering]] is another main reason for removal of acoustic energy.

Acoustic attenuation is a measure of the energy loss of sound propagation in media. Most media have viscosity, and are therefore not ideal media. When sound propagates in such media, there is always thermal consumption of energy caused by viscosity. For inhomogeneous media, besides media viscosity, acoustic scattering is another main reason for removal of acoustic energy. Acoustic attenuation in a lossy medium plays an important role in many scientific researches and engineering fields, such as medical ultrasonography, vibration and noise reduction.
Power-law frequency-dependent acoustic attenuation
Many experimental and field measurements show that the acoustic attenuation coefficient of a wide range of viscoelastic materials, such as soft tissue, polymers, soil and porous rock, can be expressed as the following power law with respect to frequency:[1][2][3]
where is the angular frequency, P the pressure, the wave propagation distance, the attenuation coefficient, and frequency dependent exponent are real non-negative material parameters obtained by fitting experimental data and the value of ranges from 0 to 2. Acoustic attenuation in water, many metals and crystalline materials are frequency-squared dependent, namely . In contrast, it is widely noted that the frequency dependent exponent of viscoelastic materials is between 0 and 2.[1][2][4][5][6] For example, the exponent of sediment, soil and rock is about 1, and the exponent of most soft tissues is between 1 and 2.[1][2][4][5][6]
The classical dissipative acoustic wave propagation equations are confined to the frequency-independent and frequency-squared dependent attenuation, such as damped wave equation and approximate thermoviscous wave equation. In recent decades, increasing attention and efforts are focused on developing accurate models to describe general power law frequency-dependent acoustic attenuation.[2][4][4][7][8][9][10][11] Most of these recent frequency-dependent models are established via the analysis of the complex wave number and are then extended to transient wave propagation.[12] The multiple relaxation model considers the power law viscosity underlying different molecular relaxation processes.[10] Szabo[2] proposed a time convolution integral dissipative acoustic wave equation. On the other hand, acoustic wave equations based on fractional derivative viscoelastic models are applied to describe the power law frequency dependent acoustic attenuation.[11] Chen and Holm proposed the positive fractional derivative modified Szabo's wave equation[4] and the fractional Laplacian wave equation.[4]
The phenomenon of attenuation obeying a frequency power-law may be described using a causal wave equation, derived from a fractional constitutive equation between stress and strain. This wave equation incorporates fractional time derivatives:

Such fractional derivative models are linked to the commonly recognized hypothesis that multiple relaxation phenomena (see Nachman et al.[10]) give rise to the attenuation measured in complex media. This link is further described in[13] and in the survey paper.[14]
For frequency band-limited waves, Ref.[15] describes a model-based method to attain causal power-law attenuation using a set of discrete relaxation mechanisms within the Nachman et al. framework.[10]
