Simple and Efficient Numerical Techniques for Treating Bodies of Revolution
Abstract
Integral equations are derived and a numerical procedure is developed to treat scattering by bodies of revolution. Both dielectric and metallic scatterers are considered and the metallic scatterers may be either open or closed. The program is validated by comparing to spheres and finite cylinders for the dielectric case. In the conducting case, a cone-spheres and an open- ended cylinder are treated. It is found that the problem of instability noted in other formulations for the open-ended cylinder problem does not appear in the present formulation. A brief description of the program and a program listing are also given.
