A solution is obtained to the problem of radiation from a slot in a parallel-plate transmission line when excited by an E-polarized, dominant mode wave. Expressions are obtained for the reflection and transmission coefficients, and the polar diagram of the radiated field. Explicit calculations are performed when the width of the slot is much greater than the free-space wavelength of the incident radiation.An application of the Lorentz reciprocity theorem yields, without further analysis, the amplitude and phase of the propagated wave which is excited in the line by an incident cylindrical or plane wave.

The study initiated in Part I is continued, with consideration being given to the case in which only a TEM wave is propagated in the parallel-plate region. The reflection and transmission coefficients, and the polar diagram of the radiated field are determined.The amplitude and phase of the propagated wave excited in the line by an incident cylindrical or plane wave are determined by reciprocity arguments.Curves are presented to illustrate the dependence of the field on the slot width and the distance between the parallel plates, for the two field types considered here and in the previous paper.

The reflection and transmission of a plane wave by a distribution of cavities in the interface of two solids of different mechanical properties are investigated. For the calculation of the reflection and transmission coefficients by a distribution of cavities, six auxiliary wave states are used in conjunction with the reciprocal identity. Specific results are presented for scattering by a doubly periodic array of cavities in the interface of solids of different elastic moduli and mass densities. For a typical cell, the boundary integral equations for scattering by a cavity at the interface of two solids are derived on the basis of continuity of displacements and tractions across the interface and by taking advantage of the geometrical periodicity. Solutions to the system of singular integral equations have been obtained by the boundary element method. Numerical results are presented as functions of the frequency for two angles of incidence.

We present an improved method for modeling 3D acoustic wavefields scattered at smooth curved interfaces. The approach is based on a high-frequency approximation of surface integral propagators and a correct description of their boundary values in terms of transmission operators. The main improvement is a uniform local approximation of these operators in the form of effective reflection and transmission coefficients. We show that the effective coefficients represent a generalization of the plane-wave coefficients widely used in conventional seismic modeling, even for the case of curved reflectors, nonplanar wavefronts, and finite frequencies. The proposed method is capable of producing complex wave phenomenas, such as caustics, edge diffractions, and head waves. Seismograms modeled for even simple models reveal significant errors implicit in the plane-wave approximation. Comparison of modeling based on effective coefficients with the analytic solution reveals errors less than 4% in peak amplitude at seismic frequencies.

Numerous investigators have studied the P-SV reflection and transmission coefficients of an isotropic solid (Zoeppritz, 1919; Nafe, 1957; Frasier, 1970; Young and Braile, 1976; Kind, 1976; Aki and Richards, 1980).

A parallel-plate transmission line has been applied to the study of the amplitude and phase of the diffracted electric field near metal cylinders of circular, square, and rectangular cross-section. The transverse dimensions of the cylinders are comparable with the wavelength (3.280 cm.). A travelling dipole probe inserted in the line through a slot in one of the plates permits investigation of the field. Absorbing wedges at the boundary of the line make the plates effectively infinite in extent. Essentially plane wave conditions exist in the region utilized in the measurements. Good agreement is obtained between calculation and experiment for circular cylinders. Measured results are given for square and rectangular cylinders. For one orientation of the rectangles the measured results are compared with approximate calculations.
