    This article is part of the issue:

    In this paper, the sound field due to a line source moving above a homogeneous semi-infinite fluid medium emitting an arbitrary time signal is deduced. The source moves with a constant velocity parallel to the flat interface at a fixed height. The expression for the velocity potential is obtained from the impulse response of the stationary line source by including the motion of the source in the source density function. The resulting sound field is expressed in terms of convolution integrals. The correctness of the formulas is verified by comparing them with the results known for the case of a continuous harmonic line source. Two examples, the sound field due to a delta pulse and a Gaussian pulse, are computed and presented. Finally, the relation between the solutions obtained here and the ones obtained when the source moves above an absorbing impedance surface is shown.
