Reconstruction of rough-surface profiles with the Kirchhoff approximation

Journal of the Optical Society of America A, 1991
An inversion algorithm, based on the Kirchhoff approximation, for the reconstruction of a rough-surface profile from measurements of the scattered field is described. It is shown that the data can be related to the surface profile through a Fourier-transform relationship by a specific choice of data and so lead to a simple fast-Fourier-transform-based ...

Effect of interfacial roughness on thermal boundary conductance: An elastic wave model using the Kirchhoff approximation

International Journal of Mechanical Sciences, 2022
Interfacial roughness plays an important role in nanoscale thermal transport, while this issue still lacks a theoretical description due to the difficulty in quantifying the phonon scattering at the disordered interface.

Appraising Kirchhoff approximation theory for the scattering of elastic shear waves by randomly rough defects

open access: yesJournal of Sound and Vibration, 2019
Rapid and accurate methods, based on the Kirchhoff approximation (KA), are developed to evaluate the scattering of shear waves by rough defects and quantify the accuracy of this approximation.

Beyond the Kirchhoff approximation II electromagnetic scattering

Radio Science, 1991
In a previous paper the momentum transfer expansion was introduced for scalar wave scattering. It was shown that, using this expansion, one could obtain wavelength dependent curvature corrections to the Kirchhoff approximation. In this paper we extend the momentum transfer perturbation expansion to electromagnetic waves.

Kirchhoff Approximation Analysis of Plane Wave Scattering by Conducting Thick Slits

IEICE Transactions on Electronics, 2019
Kirchhoff approximation (KA) method has been applied for ray-mode conversion to analyze the plane wave scattering by conducting thick slits. The scattering fields can be considered as field radiations from equivalent magnetic current sources assumed by ...

Acoustic scattering comparison of Kirchhoff approximation to Rayleigh-Fourier method for sinusoidal surface waves at low grazing angles

open access: yesJournal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2018
The Fourier series method for implementing the Rayleigh hypothesis [Rayleigh-Fourier method (RFM)] is used as a reference solution to assess the Kirchhoff approximation of the Helmholtz integral [Helmholtz-Kirchhoff approximation (HKA)] for modeling ...

Kirchhoff's approximation in diffractive optics

Diffractive Optics and Micro-Optics, 2000
Kirchhoff's approximation is reviewed and applied to standard problems of diffractive optics. Despite a consistent definition the range of validity varies significantly depending on the application. Kirchhoff's approximation is also compared with alternative diffraction models.
