Using asymptotic methods, one can reduce complicated systems of equations to simpler model equations. The model equation for a single, genuinely nonlinear, hyperbolic wave is Burgers equation. Reducing the gas dynamics equations to a Burgers equation, leads to a theory of nonlinear geometrical acoustics. When diffractive effects are included, the model

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the geometrical optics. The chapter discusses the different type of optical systems. Optical systems are used to collect light from a variety of sources, transport information, and direct it to a large assortment of detectors. Optical systems often employ the use of cylindrical and toric surfaces.

3.1 Ray Tracing A ray is a convenient representation of wave propagation. A ray represents the normal to a wavefront. Geometric optics defines the transport of light through simple geometric constructions of ray transmission and reflection. Snell's law is the only consideration during transmission of a ray.
