    On a class of functional equations of the Wiener-Hopf type and their applications in n-part scattering problems
    (Oxford Univ Press, 2003-12) İdemen, Mehmet Mithat; Alkumru, Ali
    An asymptotic theory for the functional equation K-phi=f, where K : X-->Y stands for a matrix-valued linear operator of the form K=K1P1+K2P2+...+KnPn, is developed. Here X and Y refer to certain Hilbert spaces, {P-alpha} denotes a partition of the unit operator in X while K-alpha are certain operators from X to Y. One assumes that the partition {P-alpha} as well as the operators K-alpha depend on a complex parameter nu such that all K-alpha are multi-valued around certain branch points at nu=k(+) and nu=k(-) while the inverse operators K-alpha(-1) exist and are bounded in the appropriately cut nu-plane except for certain poles. Then, for a class of {P-alpha} having certain analytical properties, an asymptotic solution valid for \k(+/-)\-->infinity is given. The basic idea is the decomposition of phi into a sum of projections on n mutually orthogonal subspaces of X. The results can be extended in a straightforward manner to the cases of no or more branch points. If there is no branch point or n=2, then the results are all exact. The theory may have effective applications in solving some direct and inverse multi-part boundary-value problems connected with high-frequency waves. An illustrative example shows the applicability as well as the effectiveness of the method.

    Scattering of electromagnetic waves by a rectangular impedance cylinder
    (Elsevier Science, 2000-04) Topsakal, Erdem; Büyükaksoy, İbrahim Alinur; İdemen, Mehmet Mithat
    A uniformly valid asymptotic solution is developed for the diffraction of a high-frequency wave by an infinitely long rectangular cylinder having different impedance walls. The incident wave is generated by a line source located parallel to the cylinder. The problem is reduced first to a system of modified Wiener-Hopf equations involving infinitely many unknown constants and then to a couple of infinite system of linear algebraic equations which are solved numerically. Explicit expressions of the dominant wave components existing in different regions are found. Some illustrative examples show the capability of the approach.

    Confluent tip singularity of the electromagnetic field at the apex of a material cone
    (Elsevier Science, 2003-09) İdemen, Mehmet Mithat
    The tip singularity of the electromagnetic field at the apex of a cone (conical sheet) is investigated in its most general framework. To this end one considers, without loss of generality, a circularly symmetric cone which separates two simple media having different constitutive parameters, and tries to reveal the asymptotic behaviour of the electromagnetic field created near the apex of the cone by any rotationally symmetric source distribution. To cover various boundary conditions which are extensively used in actual investigations, the cone is supposed to be formed by an infinitely thin material sheet having its own constitutive parameters. The results show that the type and order of the singularity depend, in general, on various parameters such as (i) the apex angle of the cone, (ii) the constitutive parameters of the mediums separated by the cone, (iii) the constitutive parameters of the material cone itself and (iv) the topology of the conical surface. The problem of determining the order in question gives rise to a transcendental algebraic equation involving the Legendre functions of the first kind with complex orders. If the order is a simple root of this equation, then the singularity is always of the algebraic typed whereas a multiple root gives rise also to logarithmic singularities. A numerical method suitable to find a good approximate solution to this equation is also established. Since the general expressions of the boundary conditions on the material cone, which, are compatible with both the Maxwell equations and the topology of the cone, are not known, an attempt has also been made to derive these expressions. Some examples concerning the boundary conditions which are extensively considered in actual investigations are given.

    Confluent edge conditions for the electromagnetic wave at the edge of a wedge bounded by material sheets
    (Elsevier Science, 2000-07) İdemen, Mehmet Mithat
    The edge conditions which dictate the asymptotic behaviour of the electromagnetic field near the edges play a crucial role in solving boundary-value problems involving boundaries having edges. In analytical studies they permit one to determine some unknown functions while in numerical investigations they enable one to improve the convergence of some processes by introducing beforehand the edge singularities into the field functions. In spite of its importance, the subject has not yet been studied sufficiently and accurately for new types of boundary conditions which are important for practical applications. This work is devoted to the analysis of wedge configurations bounded by material sheets having different constitutive parameters. The cases where the electric or the magnetic field is parallel to the edge are considered separately. It is shown that for each of these cases 81 physically different configurations are possible. However, from mathematical point of view all these configurations can be reduced only to nine canonical types. These canonical types are investigated in full detail by introducing the confluence concept which permits one to reveal also the logarithmic singularities, if any.

    Diffraction of two-dimensional high-frequency electromagnetic waves by a locally perturbed two-part impedance plane
    (2004) İdemen, Mehmet Mithat; Alkumru, Ali
    Among the wave propagation problems, those connected with half-spaces bounded by sectionally homogeneous boundaries take important place because they are motivated by microwave applications. If the boundary are of three or more parts, then the problem results, very frequently, in functional equations involving unknown functions, say Ψ+ (v), Ψ- (v) and P(v), which are regular in the upper half, lower half and whole of the complex v-plane, respectively, except at the point of infinity. A local (non-homogeneous) perturbation on a two-part boundary, which is of extreme importance from engineering point of view, gives also rise to a problem of this type. The aim of the present paper is to establish a method which is based on the elimination of the unknown functions Ψ+ (v) and Ψ- (v) to obtain an integral equation of the Fredholm type for the entire function P(v), which can be solved rather easily by numerical methods. The functions Ψ+ (v) and Ψ- (v) are then determined by the classical Wiener-Hopf technique.
