Acoustics of Layered Media II
This is the sequel to our book Acoustics of Layered Media I: Plane and Quasi Plane Waves (Springer Ser. Wave Phenom. , Vol. 5). Taken together, these two monographs present a systematic exposition of the theory of sound propagation in inhomogeneous media, which starts from first principles and includes recent results. More advanced topics are considered in this second volume. Although the theory of wave beams and fields of localized sources is more sophisticated than the theory of quasi-plane waves, it embraces a much wider range of interesting problems that are also important for applications. We exploit the results of Acoustics of Layered Media I, as long as it is expedient to consider sou...
Pulses and Other Wave Processes in Fluids
The subject of wave phenomena is well-known for its inter-disciplinary nature. Progress in this field has been made both through the desire to solve very practical problems, arising in acoustics, optics, radiophysics, electronics, oceanography, me teorology and so on, and through the development of mathematical physics which emphasized that completely different physical phenomena are governed by the same (or similar) equations. In the immense literature on physics of waves there is no lack of good presentations of particular branches or general textbooks on mathematical physics. But if one restricts the attention to pulse propagation phenomena, one no tices that many useful facts are scatter...
Acoustics of Layered Media II
A sequel to the authors' Acoustics of layered media I: plane and quasi-plane waves (Springer, 1990). Taken together, the two monographs present a systematic exposition of the theory of sound propagation in inhomogeneous media, which starts from first principles and includes recent accounts. More advanced topics are considered in this second volume. Although the theory of wave beams and fields of localized sources is more sophisticated than the theory of quasi- plane waves, it embraces a much wider range of interesting problems that are also important for applications.

Electromagnetic Mixing Formulas and Applications
This book covers the homogenization principles and mixing rules for determining the macroscopic dielectric and magnetic properties of different types of media. Sihvola (electromagnetics, Helsinki U. of Technology, Finland) discusses subjects such as the characteristic differences between a mixture and its parts, and ways that mixing results are applied to different materials in geophysics and biology.

Theory of Nonuniform Waveguides
This book presents and develops the mathematical tools required to effectively examine and analyse propagation processes of waves of various natures using the cross section method, in artificial and non-artificial waveguides. These techniques are used in the solution of practical situations in various fields, such as plasma heating in nuclear fusion, materials processing and radar and satellite communication systems.

Geometrical Theory of Diffraction
This book details the ideas underlying geometrical theory of diffraction (GTD) along with its relationships with other EM theories.
IUTAM Symposium on Diffraction and Scattering in Fluid Mechanics and Elasticity
These Conference Proceedings are intended to summarise the latest developments in diffraction and scattering theory as reported at the IU TAM Symposium on Diffraction and Scattering in Fluid Mechanics and Elasticity held in Manchester, England on 16-20 July 2000. This in formal meeting was organised to discuss mathematical advances, both from the theoretical and more applied points of view. However, its pri mary goal was to bring together groups of researchers working in dis parate application areas, but who nevertheless share common models, phenomenological features arising in such problems, and common math ematical tools. To this end, we were delighted to have four Plenary Speakers, Profes...
Recent Developments in Surface Acoustic Waves
The topic of surface waves lies at the interface between a number of disci plines - physics, theoretical and applied mechanics, electroacoustics, ap plied mathematics, surface science and seismology. This volume, based on papers delivered at European Mechanics Colloquium 226, reflects this diversity in approach and background, while showing strong links between phenomena arising from different fields. The emphasis is on recent de velopments such as nonlinear and other nonclassical effects,which have great importance for both pure science and for applications such as signal processing, nondestructive evaluation and seismic studies. In recent years there has been considerable progress in the m...
