Low and High Frequency Asymptotics: Acoustic, Electromagnetic and Elastic Wave Scattering

This volume focuses on asymptotic methods in the low and high frequency limits for the solution of scattering and propagation problems. Each chapter is pedagogical in nature, starting with the basic foundations and ending with practical applications. For example, using the Geometrical Theory of Diffraction, the canonical problem of edge diffraction is first solved and then used in solving the problem of diffraction by a finite crack. In recent times, the crack problem has been of much interest for its applications to Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) of flaws in structural materials.\nLow and High Frequency Asymptotics: Acoustic, Electromagnetic and Elastic Wave Scattering and published by North Holland.
