内容説明

This is the first volume in the Handbook on Acoustic, Electromagnetic and Elastic Wave Scattering subseries and it serves as an introduction to the remaining volumes. The basic objective of this series is to serve as a major reference source for the uniform treatment of acoustic, electromagnetic and elastodynamic field problems. It provides an indispensable guide for the scientific community and graduate students by acquainting them very quickly with the basic principles of a certain technique as it is applied to any of the three fields, and also provides appropriate references. It was felt that in presenting such a comprehensive collection of treatment methods as they are applied to all three wave fields it would open up a whole range of new ideas to solid mechanists, who would perhaps otherwise not come into contact with such electromagnetic waves literature. These three subseries of volumes will prove a useful aid to researchers in reading and understanding the jargon used in the literature on acoustic, electromagnetic and elastodynamic fields, as well as providing them with the opportunity for the cross-fertilization of ideas.
