Ram compares the scattering that occurs in this situation to a wave of water hitting a lily pad: "The wave crashing with the lily pad will excite a secondary, scattered wave that makes circular ...

Its minimal memory requirements allowed them to scale up wave scattering calculations by two orders of magnitude or more. The scattering network design was published Aug. 5 in Intelligent ...

A new software that simulates complex wave scattering for metamaterial design could bring the invisibility cloak a step closer to reality. Developed by researchers at Macquarie University ...

By adapting mathematical techniques used in particle physics, researchers in Germany have developed an approach that could ...

This image is a simulation of a kind of acoustic wave called a Rayleigh-Bloch wave. The stripes of light and dark areas represent the “peaks" and “troughs" of the waves and are shaped by their ...

With gravitational wave observatories like LIGO entering a ... "While the physical process of two black holes interacting and scattering via gravity we're studying is conceptually simple, the ...

Examples include super-lenses to view objects at the molecular scale; invisibility cloaks, which refract all visible light; and perfect wave absorption for energy harvesting or noise reduction.
