Organizer
On Thursday, 15 December 2022, MDPI and the Journal Mathematics organized the 5th Webinar of the Mathematics series, entitled “Analytical Methods in Wave Scattering and Diffraction”. This online seminar was chaired by Prof. Dr. Nikolaos L. Tsitsas from the School of Informatics, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece, and focused on analytical methods in wave scattering and diffraction, which are still proven to be very effective in the modeling of challenging applications.
First, an introduction to the field was presented by the Chairman including historical notes, evolutions, applications and challenges. Then, the first invited speaker Prof. Ari Sihvola elaborated on a wide variety of boundary conditions in electromagnetics and their consequences in the analysis of important configurations. Next, the second invited speaker Prof. Mario Lucido presented various fast-convergent integral-equation techniques for the analysis of electromagnetic scattering by thin disks. The webinar was concluded with a brief discussion and some Q&As.
The webinar was offered via Zoom and required registration to attend. The full recording can be found below. To stay updated on the next webinars on Mathematics, be sure to sign up for our newsletter by clicking on “Subscribe” at the top of the page.
