Theoretical and Experimental Study of the Backscattering Cross Section of an Infinite Ribbon

This paper analyses the backscattering cross section of a cylinder both using traditional method model and a new numerical solution model, namely Relaxed Hierarchical Equivalent Source Algorithm (RHESA). The purpose of this study is to investigate the prospect of incorporating numerical solution model into volume scattering calculation, to be applied into microwave remote sensing in vegetation area. Results show a good match, suggesting that RHESA may be suitable to be used to model the more complex nature of vegetation medium.

Theoretical Results

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) ship wake images in light wind and calm sea conditions frequently appear in the form of a bright V with a half-angle of 2 to 3 deg. Sophisticated and conflicting explanations of this phenomenon, based on the Bragg scattering mechanism, have been proposed. There is a belief that the narrow V-wake is not a part of the Kelvin wake. An alternative approach, which is not generally accepted, suggests that short divergent Kelvin waves may contribute to the V-wake imaging although these waves are mixed with unsteady surface waves generated by the ship-induced turbulence. Ship-generated divergent waves contaminated by surfactants and their radar backscattering cross section are studied. The hull of the ship is represented by a single layer of hydrodynamic singularities. The Green function of a point source moving below a free surface covered by surfactants is derived. A closed-form asymptotic solution for the far ship wave wake is obtained. It is used to calculate analytically the corresponding radar backscattering cross section. The radiative, viscous, and surfactant-induced decay of the V-wake brightness along the V-arms is discussed. The theoretical results are compared against available experimental data.

Side Walls

An experimental study of drop formation in narrow horizontal microchannels with rectangular cross section and a height from 50 to 150 micrometers was performed. It is shown that in these channels there is a new flow regime when drops moving along the microchannel, which are vertical liquid bridges. Three mechanisms of the formation of such drops are distinguished: the formation directly near the liquid nozzle, the separation of droplets from the liquid moving along the side walls of the channel, and due to the destruction of strongly deformed drops and horizontal liquid bridges. It was found that the deformation of drops increases with an increase in the Weber number. It is shown that when the first critical value of the Weber number is reached, the drops begin to deform, and when the second Weber number is reached, they break.
