Scattering by a Parabolic Cylinder: A Uniform Asymptotic Expansion.

Abstract

A uniform asymptotic expansion in the variable, determining the location of the observer for the fields scattered by a perfectly conducting parabolic cylinder, is derived. This expansion can be applied to scattering by arbitrary smooth convex surfaces of variable curvature. The accuracy of numerical results is examined. (Author)
