This paper presents the shaping optimization of an S-band cylindrical offset reflector antenna with cosecant-squared radiation pattern in elevation plane. The cross section of the antenna is mathematically modeled by a polynomial function and optimized by the genetic algorithm to obtain the desired pattern for both TE and TM polarizations. The physical optics method together with the uniform th...

Electromagnetic waves are studied with applications to microstrip antennas, 1'2 geophysical subsurface probing,3' 4 scattering from helical structures5 '6 and Smith-Purcell radiation from metallic gratings.7 Radiation and resonance characteristics of two coupled circular microstrip disk antennas are studied rigorously using numerical techniques, matched asymptotic analysis, and the newly develo...

Point spread function (PSF) models derived from physical optics provide a more accurate representation of real blurs than simpler models based on geometrical optics. However, the physical PSF models do not always result in a significantly better restoration, due to the coarse sampling of the recording device and insufficiently high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) levels. Low recording resolutions r...

Personality traits and their relation with emotional intelligence and psychological ownership (PO) have to be considered in public-sector organizations, because employees who work in the public sector may have fewer mechanisms to increase their feelings of PO toward their organization. Thus, with regard to conditions of public organizations, more attention should be paid to structural and organ...

In computational camera research, people design unconventional optics to sample the light field in a way that is radically different from the traditional camera and preserve new forms of visual information for various applications. When one has an idea of optics design, it is very often that an evaluation based on simulation has to be conducted first before building a real system. However, how ...

In (Golchin A. and Rezaei P., Subpullbacks and flatness properties of S-posets. Comm. Algebra. 37: 1995-2007 (2009)) study was initiated of flatness properties of right -posets  over a pomonoid  that can be described by surjectivity of  corresponding to certain (sub)pullback diagrams and new properties such as  and  were discovered. In this article first of all we describe po-flatness propertie...

A new physical-geometric optics hybrid (PGOH) method is developed to compute the scattering and absorption properties of ice particles. This method is suitable for studying the optical properties of ice particles with arbitrary orientations, complex refractive indices (i.e., particles with significant absorption), and size parameters (proportional to the ratio of particle size to incident wavel...
