Beschreibung:
Develops a unified mathematical framework for treating a wide variety of diffusion-related periodic phenomena in such areas as heat transfer, electrical conduction, and light scattering. Deriving and using Green functions in one and higher dimensions to provide a unified approach, the author develops the properties of diffusion-wave fields first for the well-studied case of thermal-wave fields and then applies the methods to nonthermal fields.
This book develops a unified mathematical framework for treating a wide variety of diffusion-related periodic phenomena. The text is intended for students and professionals working in such fields as thermal-wave spectroscopy, non-destructive evaluation, semiconductor and electronic device characterization, and biomedical laser tissue diagnostics.
