The origin of the inferential method is contained in the prodigious work of Uberall over the past decades. In this study the later technique is taken and an analysis for recently studied resonances is presented. Use is made of the recently formulated acoustic background for elastic shells which makes it possible to examine residual back scattered echo's characterized by pure resonance effects. One observes the lowest order symmetric and antisymmetric model or Lamb resonances as well as water borne and pseudo-Stoneley resonances and the higher order Lamb modes Ai and Si where i = 1,2,3... Use of partial wave analysis will be made to investigate several relevant cases which infer the nature of the resonances. Acoustic scattering, shallow water, waveguide propagation.
