A Geometrical Analysis of Diffraction Based on Fractal Inhomogeneous Space

Diffraction of a Gaussian beam in a three-dimensional smoothly inhomogeneous medium: an eikonal-based complex geometrical-optics approach.

We present an ab initio account of the paraxial complex geometrical optics (CGO) in application to scalar Gaussian beam propagation and diffraction in a 3D smoothly inhomogeneous medium. The paraxial CGO deals with quadratic expansion of the complex eikonal and reduces the wave problem to the solution of ordinary differential equations of the Riccati type. This substantially simplifies the desc...

a gender-based pragmatic analysis of the use of english compliment responses by iraqi efl students:a speech act perspective

تعارفات کنش های گفتاری هستند که افراد در زندگی روزمر? خود به منظور برقراری دوستی یا تداوم روابط مسالمت آمیز به کار می برند. ساز و کار تعارف مختص زبان انگلیسی یا هر زبان دیگری نیست و پدیده ای است جهانی و در همه زبانها حضور دارد. تفاوتی که از این نظر در زبانها و فرهنگ ها وجود دارد مربوط به پاسخ به این کنش گفتاری در گفتمان است. این مطالعه به بررسی تنوع پاسخ های انگلیسی و عربی به کنش گفتاری تعارف د...

Algorithm of Diffraction for Standing Tree based on the Uniform Geometrical Theory of Diffraction

Manuscript received September 11, 2011 * Corresponding author; E-mail: [email protected] Abstract— The diffraction fields and the shadow of standing tree diffraction are solved by using polygons to approximately take the place and approximation as approximate substitutes of for the circle. The algorithm model of ray path tracing is computed by tracing the ray path on standing tree. Considering el...

the effectiveness of strategy-based instruction in teaching english as a second or foreign language: a meta-analysis of experimental studies

a large number of single research studies on the effects of strategy-based instruction (sbi) in teaching english as a foreign or second language has been conducted so far. however, the lack of a comprehensive meta-analysis targeting the effectiveness of english language sbi is observed. moreover, the findings of experimental studies regarding the context of the english language, proficiency lev...
