This article presents some new experimental data for study the shielding effect of electromagnetic wave. The frequencies of electromagnetic wave are mainly focused on emission of daily electrical equipments, which are normally called “low frequency electromagnetic waves”. In this work, a water pump with maximum magnetic field intensity of ca. 2300 mG was applied as emission source of the electr...

Electromagnetic wave surface velocimeters ESVs measure the Doppler shift in electromagnetic waves reflected from the water surface. They provide nonintrusive water surface velocity measurements from bridges and river banks. Comparisons with laboratory and field tests show very good agreement over a wide range of elevation and planview angles. Laboratory testing shows comparable results between ...

The advent of negative index materials has spawned extensive research into metamaterials over the past decade. Metamaterials are attractive not only for their exotic electromagnetic properties, but also their promise for applications. A particular branch-the metamaterial perfect absorber (MPA)-has garnered interest due to the fact that it can achieve unity absorptivity of electromagnetic waves....

The diffraction from a single periodic metallic grating is shown to be significantly modified when a surfaceplasmon polariton wave is excited at the metal-dielectric interface. In particular, vanishing diffraction orders in accordance with scalar diffraction theory, are generated in the presence of the surface wave. This modification is analytically explained, and a plasmonic Bragg law is formu...

Thermal-wave fields have been optically generated and measured, using spatially resolved scanning photopyroelectric detection. Both single laser-beam diffraction profiles and thermal-wave patterns from two laser beams, interfering coherently in a manner analogous to Young's optical-wave experiment, have been produced. The diffraction and interference images have further been shown to be in exce...

Deployment of wireless systems in nuclear power plants has attracted a lot of attention recently. However, before wireless systems can be installed in a nuclear power plant, it is necessary to evaluate the effect of radiation environment on electromagnetic wave which is the communication media for all radio wave based wireless systems. This is particular important if the wireless systems are ex...

background: health-related quality of life is affected by electromagnetic field exposure in each person everyday life. however, this is extremely controversial issue. objective: investigation of the associations between electromagnetic field exposure and miscarriage among women of tehran. materials and methods: in this longitudinal study, 462 pregnant women with gestational age <12 wks from sev...

The “Grating Diffraction Calculator” (GD-Calc) is a MATLAB-based, electromagnetic simulation program that computes diffraction efficiencies of optical grating structures, including biperiodic gratings. The program’s capabilities include a general and flexible grating modeling facility, structure parameterization (with any number of parameters), and unrestricted control over diffraction order se...

A full-wave electromagnetic model for analyzing waveguide discontinuities of arbitrarily shaped piecewise planar boundaries is presented. The analysis is facilitated by using the finite plane-wave series expansion of circular cylindrical modal functions. Since electromagnetic fields on each of the planar boundary surfaces of the inhomogeneous region are expressed in terms of plane-wave modal fu...
