@bullet Parabolic Wave Computations in Non-orthogonal Coordinate Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
A recent development of a parabolic equation method for wave propagation in a non-orthogonal coordinate system is reviewed. A transformation of the full governing equation prior to development of any approximation leads to a model whose results stand in closer agreement to laboratory data for a case of waves propagating into a breakwater harbor. The effect of amplitude dispersion on predicted wave height is studied and is also seen to be important for the case considered here. Reflection of obliquely incident waves by a vertical wall is also considered.

کاربرد روش معادله سهموی در تحلیل مسائل انتشار امواج داخل ساختمان
With the rapid growth of indoor wireless communication systems, the need to accurately model radio wave propagation inside the building environments has increased. Many site-specific methods have been proposed for modeling indoor radio channels. Among these methods, the ray tracing algorithm and the finite-difference time domain (FDTD) method are the most popular ones. The ray tracing approach ...

The non-orthogonal boundary-fitted coordinate transformation method is applied to the solution of steady three-dimensional momentum and energy equations in laminar flow to obtain temperature field and Nusselt numbers in the thermal entry region of straight ducts of different cross sectional geometries. The conservation equations originally written in Cartesian coordinates are parabolized in the...

متن کاملCurvilinear parabolic approximation for surface wave transformation with wave–current interaction
The direct coordinate transformation method, which only transforms independent variables and retains Cartesian dependent variables, may not be an appropriate method for the purpose of simplifying the curvilinear parabolic approximation of the vector form of the wave–current equation given by Kirby [Higher-order approximations in the parabolic equation method for water waves, J.

متن کاملA new approach to Gaussian beams on a sphere: theory and application to long-period surface wave propagation
The subject of this paper is the application of the Gaussian beam method to the propagation of surface waves on a laterally heterogeneous, spherical earth taking fully into account the curvature of the Earth’s surface. This is achieved by constructing a ray centred coordinate system on general curved surfaces. The application of this method to a spherical shell leads to a ray centred coordinate...
