Plane-Wave Scattering of a Periodic Corrugated Cylinder

Unknown Date (has links)
In this dissertation, a novel approach to modeling the scattered field of a periodic corrugated cylinder, from an oblique incident planewave, is presented. The approach utilizes radial waveguide approximations for fields within the corrugations, which are point matched to approximated scattered fields outside of the corrugation to solve for the expansion coefficients. The point matching is done with TMz and TEz modes simultaneously, allowing for hybrid modes to exist. The derivation of the fields and boundary conditions used are discussed in detail. Axial and radial propagating modes for the scattered fields are derived and discussed. Close treatment is given to field equations summation truncation and conversion to matrix form, for numerical computing. A detailed account of the modeling approach using Mathematica® and NCAlgebra for the noncommutative algebra, involved in solving for the expansion coefficients, are also given. The modeling techniques offered provide a full description and prediction of the scattered field of a periodic corrugated cylinder. The model is configured to approximate a smooth cylinder, which is then compared against that of a textbook standard smooth cylinder. The methodology and analysis applied in this research provide a solution for computational electromagnetics, RF communications, Radar systems and the like, for the design, development, and analysis of such systems. Through the rapid modeling techniques developed in this research, early knowledge discovery can be made allowing for better more effective decision making to be made early in the design and investigation process of an RF project. / Includes bibliography. / Dissertation (Ph.D.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2017. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Representação de transformadores em estudos de transitórios eletromagnéticos. / Representation of transformers on electromagnetic transients studies.

Czernorucki, Marcos Veloso 08 January 2008 (has links)
Estudos de transitórios eletromagnéticos são importantes fontes de informação para que os transformadores sejam dimensionados de maneira correta. No entanto, para que tais estudos sejam bem sucedidos, os modelos utilizados devem refletir com fidelidade o comportamento do equipamento. Este trabalho mostra como os elementos do modelo de um transformador são influenciados pelas dimensões geométricas de sua parte ativa. Também introduz uma formulação alternativa, para o transformador saturável (STC) do ATP, desenvolvida dentro do programa MATLAB. Os ramos RL foram representados usando o Método de Integração Trapezoidal e a magnetização foi equacionada pelo Método da Compensação. Uma das contribuições que esta dissertação oferece é a possibilidade de identificar erros numéricos que ocorrem em simulações do ATP, bem como permitir a interpretação de resultados que apresentem oscilações numéricas. / Electromagnetic transient studies are an important source of information to develop transformer dimensioning. But, for the success of that purpose, it is important the models which are being used reflect with fidelity the behavior of the machine. This lecture presents how the transformer model elements are influenced by the active part geometrical dimensions. It also introduces an alternative formulation for the ATP saturable transformer (STC), written inside the MATLAB program. The RL branches are represented using the Trapezoidal Rule and the magnetization by the Compensation Method. One of the contributions of this dissertation is the possibility to identify numerical errors that occur in ATP simulations, and also permit numerical oscillatory results interpretation.

Simulation study of Rydberg atomic states interacting with electromagnetic radiation for use in future technological applications

Zou, Yi January 2004 (has links)
Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University / PLEASE NOTE: Boston University Libraries did not receive an Authorization To Manage form for this thesis or dissertation. It is therefore not openly accessible, though it may be available by request. If you are the author or principal advisor of this work and would like to request open access for it, please contact us at open-help@bu.edu. Thank you. / The present work involves the study of a simplified atomic system to gain better understanding of controlling and manipulating Rydberg-like systems. Detailed simulations of the classical hydrogen atom have been carried out using, first, the nonrelativistic Lorentz-Dirac classical equation of motion for a charged point particle under the action of a Coulombic binding force, plus applied radiation, then progressing to include the effects of the classical electromagnetic zero-point (ZP) radiation spectrum. This work has been carried out under the guide of the theory called stochastic electrodynamics (SED). Many applications involving atoms in excited Rydberg states can be developed, based on the work described here, to aid in carefully controlled thin film deposition, ion implantation, etching, and sputtering in micro and nanoelectronics, as well as optical instrumentation related applications, via applied electromagnetic fields. The improved simulation code for the long-term numerical integration of non-linear differential equations for tracking particles, should be helpful for a number of other closely related areas. Specifically, investigations into astronomy, including the Kepler problem treated in satellite and planetary orbit simulations in celestial mechanics, as well as problems in such areas as atomic and molecular dynamic studies, may well find benefit from the investigations here. As shown in the present study, very nonlinear behavior occurs for such Rydberg-like system, making a numerical study of the system nearly essential. Little of this work has been explored before in the literature. Resonances, rapid transitions, very long decay times, all influenced by applied radiation, are described and analyzed in detail here. Such results are expected to have significant bearing on recent experiments reported in the literature on "kicked Rydberg" atoms. Moreover, as reported here, the ZP field was included in very lengthy numerical simulations, resulting in a very close comparison with the ground state of hydrogen as predicted by Schrodinger's wave equation. This last result helps to support SED in general, although certainly considerable more work needs to be done for a full confirmation, but in the process this result greatly aids simulating situations where SED is expected to hold very well. / 2031-01-01

Validation of Electromagnetic CAD Human Phantoms

Tankaria, Harshal 23 April 2017 (has links)
About fifty years ago, research began in the field of computational human phantoms primarily for radiation dose calculations. This field has grown exponentially due to the potential for solving complicated medical problems. Modeling electromagnetic, structural, thermal, and acoustic response of the human body to different internal and external stimuli has been limited by the availability of numerically efficient computational human models. This study describes the recent development of a computational full-body human phantom €“ Visible Human Project (VHP) €“ Female Model. This human phantom has been validated for certain frequencies in the ISM band and beyond. The anatomical accuracy of the phantom is established by comparing the CAD phantom with the original VHP image dataset. This thesis also applies the VHP €“ Female CAD Model (version 3.1) for investigating the effects of MRI radiation. The simulation environment ANSYS HFSS is used for studying the effects of RF birdcage coil on the human phantom. Finally, a non-ionizing technique for osteoporosis detection is investigated numerically.
