Weakly Orthogonal Spherical Harmonics in a Non-Polar Spherical Coordinates and its Application to Functions on Cubed-Sphere

open access: yesSultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 2012
In a recent paper (Nasir, 2007), a set of weakly orthogonal and completely orthogonal spherical harmonics in a non-polar spherical coordinate system based on a cubed-sphere was constructed. In this work, we explore some linear relations between these two

Fractal Spherical Harmonics [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Analysis, 2013
This paper tackles the construction of fractal maps on the unit sphere. The functions defined are a generalization of the classical spherical harmonics. The methodology used involves an iterated function system and a linear and bounded operator of functions on the sphere.

Smooth approximation of data on the sphere with splines [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
A computable function, defined over the sphere, is constructed, which is of classC1 at least and which approximates a given set of data. The construction is based upon tensor product spline basisfunctions, while at the poles of the spherical system of ...

3D Modeling of Individual Trees from LiDAR and Photogrammetric Point Clouds by Explicit Parametric Representations for Green Open Space (GOS) Management

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2022
The development and management of green open spaces are essential in overcoming environmental problems such as air pollution and urban warming. 3D modeling and biomass calculation are the example efforts in managing green open spaces.

An alternative to Wigner d-matrices for rotating real spherical harmonics

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2013
Transformation of spherical harmonics under rotation is a major problem in many areas of theoretical and applied science. While elegantly and efficiently solved for complex spherical harmonics with Wigner D- and d-matrices, extending this method to real ...

Pilot study on the influence of spatial resolution of human voice directivity on speech perception

open access: yesActa Acustica, 2022
A perceptual threshold related to spatial resolution of the human voice directivity was determined through a listening test of similarity (MUSHRA). Directivity data of an artificial talking head measured at high spatial resolution (spherical harmonics ...

New class of solutions to Laplace equation: Regularized multipoles of negative orders

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2019
We introduce a new class of solutions to the Laplace equation, dubbed logopoles, and use them to derive a new relation between solutions in prolate spheroidal and spherical coordinates.

Electromagnetic Scattering by Bianisotropic Spheres

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Electromagnetic fields in bulk bianisotropic media contain plane waves whose k-vectors can be found using the method of the index of refraction’s operator and belong to the Fresnel wave surfaces that fall into one of the five hyperbolic classes of the ...

Calculating spherical harmonics without derivatives

open access: yesCondensed Matter Physics, 2018
The derivation of spherical harmonics is the same in nearly every quantum mechanics textbook and classroom. It is found to be difficult to follow, hard to understand, and challenging to reproduce by most students.
