This is a first year graduate text on electromagnetic field theory emphasizing mathematical approaches, problem solving and physical interpretation. Examples deal with guidance, propagation, radiation and scattering of electromagnetic waves, metallic and dielectric wave guides, resonators, antennas and radiating structures, Cerenkov radiation, moving media, plasmas, crystals, integrated optics, lasers and fibers, remote sensing, geophysical probing, dipole antennas and stratified media.
This text considers waves the great unifying concept of physics. With minimal mathematics, it emphasizes the behavior common to specific phenomena--earthquake waves studied by seismologists; waves and ripples on oceans,...

This book provides a comprehensive, modern approach to signals and systems, concentrating on those aspects that are most relevant for applications such as communication systems and signal processing. Emphasis is...
Comprehensive coverage of light polarization theory and its practical applications in today's cutting-edge technologies Besides being indispensable to modern investigations into the physical world, light polarization is a fundamental...
Appropriate for an introductory course in acoustics for non-scientists. This book incorporates the remarkable changes in digital audio technology -- including consumer products--into a firm foundation of physics of sound.
Provides a particularly good discussion of the electromagnetics of light in bounded media (i.e., fibers). * The only book that treats the two complementary topics, fiber and integrated optics. *...
This monograph is devoted to the systematic presentation of the theory of sound wave propagation in layered structures. These structures can be man-made, such as ultrasonic filters, lenses, surface-wave delay...
Waves in the Atmosphere: Atmospheric Infrasound and Gravity Waves : Their Generation and Propagation
An inquiry into the means by which machine-generated noise may be controlled so as to reduce insulation costs and improve the work environment. A special feature of this book is...
Two key words define the scope of this book: 'ultrasound' and 'colloids'. Historically, there has been little real communication between disciples of these two fields. Although there is a large...
