A method is put forward to investigate the acoustic scattering from double-sided water loaded targets which is penetrable even in high frequency. The present approach is an extension of the TriKirch method which was elaborated for non-penetrable targets [J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 140(3), 1878-1886 (2016)] and complex targets are dispersed into many triangular planar facets. Reflection coefficient of plane facet is introduced to calculate the scattering amplitude of each non-rigid triangular facets combined with TirKirch method, and the total scattering amplitude of target is obtained by superposing the amplitude of all facets’ contributions coherently. Double bounce (DB) contributions to the scattering is calculating by ray-tracing method. Computations are made for a double-sided water loaded finite cylindrical shell with perforated ring ribs, and are compared with the experimental results,and both results show good agreement.
