As a result of the work done, the structural features of piezoceramic composites of connectivity 1-3 are determined. Of the various possible methods and materials for piezo-composite electrodes, the only one that is optimally suitable for use in directional ultrasound devices has been selected.

Vector fields in ocean acoustics are the fields of particle velocity and power flow density. Vector analysis methods are used for theoretical analysis and classification of singular points in a hydroacoustic waveguide. Modeling of the power flow field is carried out as a product of the pressure fields and the components of the velocity particle field. The fields of pressure and velocity particles are calculated by the method of normal modes. The simulation of the power flow field in hydroacoustic waveguides with different sound velocity profiles and different acoustic properties of the bottom is carried out. Some regularities in the location of singular points are revealed.
