Electromagnetic wave diffraction by a wide and thick slit has been formulated and analyzed the effect of the slit’s thickness. From our numerical calculation, it has been found that for far field pattern, one can apply a rather simple infinitely thin slit formulation, when the thickness of the wide slit is less than one half wavelength. keywords: Ray-mode coupling, Thick slit diffraction proble...

It is shown that a smooth metal film (or a plasma layer) can be made transparent for an electromagnetic wave when two identical subwavelength diffraction gratings are placed on both sides of the film. The electromagnetic wave transmission through the metal film is caused by excitation of evanescent surface waves (plasmons) and their transformation into propagating waves at the gratings. A model...

Amorphous carbon nanotubes (ACNTs) with diameters in the range of 7-50 nm were used as absorber materials for electromagnetic waves. The electromagnetic wave absorbing composite films were prepared by a dip-coating method using a uniform mixture of rare earth lanthanum nitrate doped ACNTs and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The microstructures of ACNTs and ACNT/PVC composites were characterized using...

Theoretical results on the electromagnetic wave diffraction from a periodic strip grating placed on a chiral medium are obtained. Analytical Regularization Method based on the solution to the vector Riemann-Hilbert boundary value problem was used to get robust numerical results in the resonant domain, where direct solution methods typically fail. It was shown that in the case of normal incidenc...

in this paper the telemac-3d model has been hired to simulate and study the high waves’ interaction with coastal structures. therefore a special arrangement of telemac-3d has been prepared in this study to simulate wave generation, coastal processes, wave set-up and overtopping over coastal structures. experimental data has been used to verify this arrangement of the model. thereafter, the mode...

To prevent serious electromagnetic interference, a single-layer and double layer wave-absorbing coating employing complex absorbents composed of carbon black with epoxy resin as matrix was prepared. The morphologies of carbon black /epoxy composites were characterized by scanning electron microscope  and atomic force microscope, respectively. The carbon black  particles exhibit obvious polyarom...

in this paper, scattering of a plane and monochromatic electromagnetic wave from a nano-wire is simulated using surface integral equations. first, integral equationsgoverning unknown fields on the surface is obtained based on stratton-cho surface integral equations. then, the interaction of the wave with a non-plasmonic as well as a palsmonic nano-wire is considered. it is shown that in scatter...

in this paper the reflection coefficient of electromagnetic wave incidence on the walls of the buildings and obstacles that occurs in mobile communication path was modified by solving the riccati nonlinear equations. for this purpose, the building walls are assumed inhomogeneous layers where their permittivity changes as function of the wall thickness. using this reflection coefficient, a new p...
