Publisher's Synopsis
Dedicated to modern approaches of a high-frequency technique in diffraction theory, Asymptotic Methods in Short-Wavelength Diffraction Theory outlines a variety of crucial topics. The book considers a multitude of matters, ranging from the ray method to the theory of high-frequency whispering-gallery waves alongside the reviewing and reflecting on recent results from the literature dealing with localized asymptotic solutions and uniform representation of a high-frequency wave-field. The book serves as an exclusive address to experts on electromagnetics, seismology and acoustics as well as to mathematicians interested in modern approaches of mathematical physics.
