A combination of the body-of-revolution and finite element methods is adopted for full-wave analysis of waveguides and waveguide discontinuities involving angular field variation. Such an approach is highly efficient and much more flexible than analytical techniques. The method is performed in two different cases: utilizing a generalized impedance matrix to determine the scattering parameters of a single waveguide section and utilizing...

The thesis concentrates on comprehensive theoretical, numerical and experimental analysis of guided wave propagation in bars embedded in concrete or mortar. The investigations are focused on a particular type of objects representing a laboratory model of a ground anchor. Complex description of wave propagation phenomena in partially embedded bars is given and its application in...

This paper introduces a novel technique for enhancing the efficiency of the finite element method (FEM) by incorporating special modules, called macromodels, into the standard eigenvalue formulation. The number of unknowns in the separated macromodel subdomain can be significantly reduced by orthogonal projection, using the efficient nodal order reduction algorithm. The idea of macromodels implementation is demonstrated on a simple...

Wykorzystując metodę dopasowania rodzajów opisano metodykę połączenia zastępczego pola rozproszonego od dowolnej konfiguracji prętów dielektrycznych lub wykonanych z metamateriału z pobudzeniem z falowodu prostokątnego. Zaprezentowano częstotliwościowe charakterystyki macierzy rozproszenia dla rodzaju podstawowego. Zaobserwowano filtrujące własności badanych układów.
