This book presents a novel methodology for the computation of RCS of metallic structures using a parallelized version of NEC in conjunction with a finite element preprocessor which has been strategically incorporated for simplifying geometry modelling catering to NEC guidelines. It includes a thorough overview of the theoretical background of NEC including all relevant aspects of formulation and modelling. The revised methodology including all the required steps and details is discussed elaborately along with case studies and validations. This book will serve as a valuable resource for students, researchers, scientists, and engineers working in the field of RCS predictions and measurements.

Beginning with the development of finite difference equations, and leading to the complete FDTD algorithm, this is a coherent introduction to the FDTD method (the method of choice for modeling Maxwell's equations). It provides students and professional engineers with everything they need to know to begin writing FDTD simulations from scratch and to develop a thorough understanding of the inner workings of commercial FDTD software. Stability, numerical dispersion, sources and boundary conditions are all discussed in detail, as are dispersive and anisotropic materials. A comparative introduction of the finite volume and finite element methods is also provided. All concepts are introduced from first principles, so no prior modeling experience is required, and they are made easier to understand through numerous illustrative examples and the inclusion of both intuitive explanations and mathematical derivations.

Used throughout the United States and many other countries, the National Electric Code (NEC) is the world’s most detailed set of electrical codes pertaining to photovoltaic (PV) systems. Photovoltaic Systems and the National Electric Code presents a straightforward explanation of the NEC in everyday language. The new book is based on the 2017 NEC, which will be used widely until 2023, with most of the interpretations and material staying true long after. This book interprets the distinct differences between previous versions of the NEC and the 2017 NEC and clarifies how these Code changes relate specifically to photovoltaic installations. Written by two of the leading authorities and educators in the field, this book will be a vital resource for solar professionals, as well as anyone preparing for a solar certification exam.

Stealth technology is a crucial pre-requisite in the combat zone, where swiftness, surprise and initiative are the decisive elements for survivability. The supreme goal here is to reduce the visibility of military vehicles by shaping, application of radar absorbing materials, passive cancellation, active cancellation etc. With respect to multilayered radar absorbing structures (RAS), this book presents an efficient algorithm based on particle swarm optimization (PSO), for the material selection as well as optimization of thickness of multilayered RAS models considering both normal as well as oblique incidence cases. It includes a thorough overview of the theoretical background required for the analysis of multilayered RAS as well as the step-by-step procedure for the implementation of PSO-based algorithm. The accuracy and computational efficiency of the indigenously developed code is also clearly established using relevant validations and case studies. FEATURES Provides step-by-step procedure for the implementation of particle swarm optimization (PSO) based algorithm in the context of multilayered radar absorbing structures (RAS) design Helps to understand the EM design, analysis and optimization of multilayered RAS Describes the theoretical background required for the analysis of multilayered RAS Illustrates in detail the theoretical formulation supported by intuitive ray diagrams and comprehensive flowcharts to implement the algorithm with ease Includes elaborate validations and case studies This book will serve as a valuable resource for students, researchers, scientists, and engineers involved in the electromagnetic design and development of multi-layered radar absorbing structures.

This SpringerBrief details various techniques employed for enhancing the transmission efficiency of radomes by modifying the radome wall configurations. These broadbanding techniques are based on inclusion of metallic wire-grids/meshes in the radomewalls, inclusion of metallic strip-gratings in the radome layers, inclusion of FSS based structures in between the radome layers and the use of inhomogeneous dielectric structures as radome wall. The volume provides detailed chapter-wise explanation of the design aspects and discusses the performance analysis of the modified radome wall configurations. It will be of interest to researchers, academicians and students working in the field of radomes.
