‎the water wave generation by wave paddle and a freely falling rigid body are examined by using an incompressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics (isph)‎. ‎in the current isph method‎, ‎the pressure was evaluated by solving pressure poisson equation using a semi-implicit algorithm based on the projection scheme and the source term of pressure poisson equation contains both of divergence free ve...

scattering of an incoming wave train by a discontinuity at the upper surface of the ocean over a uniform porous bottom of finite depth is considered here in the framework of linearized water wave theory. by employing residue calculus method, the reflection and transmission coefficient are obtained. these coefficients are computed numerically for different values of the porosity parameter g and ...

a simple new closed form of the green function for axisymmetric magnetostatic problemsis found analytically in cylindrical coordinates. the result is verified by applying several examples.

the problem of propagation of plane wave including body and surface waves propagating in a transversely isotropic half-space with a depth-wise axis of material symmetry is investigated in details. using the advantage of representation of displacement fields in terms of two complete scalar potential functions, the coupled equations of motion are uncoupled and reduced to two independent equations...

In this chapter the theory of scattering of elastic surface waves is described. Since surface waves are guided along the surface of materials, the scattering properties of surface waves are useful for probing the heterogeneity of the material near the surface as well as perturbations of the free surface. This has applications in the detection of surface defects (Steg and Klemens, 1974) and in s...

A new type of photonic crystals entitled “magnonic crystals (MC)” that exhibit forbidden gaps in the microwave spectrum of magnetostatic spin waves (MSW) are reported. The topography of the MCs that consist of two-dimensional (2-D) etched holes periodic structure in yttrium iron garnet films was studied by atomic force and magnetic force magnetometry. The propagation characteristics of spin wav...

Recent experiments by Hammack et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 532, 2005, p. 1) on deepwater waves with two-dimensional, periodic surface patterns showed several features, some of which were unsteady. Fuhrman & Madsen (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 559, 2006, p. 391) explained three of these as being the consequence of sinusoidal forcing by the wavemaker array that did not include forced harmonics, either i...

optical interferometry is being used as an efficient tool to analyse smooth surfaces for more than a century. although, due to introduction of novel computer assisted analyzing techniques and array detectors, like ccd, the speed and the precision of processing have been increased tremendously, but the main equation involved is not changed. the main equation is the intensity distribution in the ...
