Antihypertensive therapy and wave reflections

Prostaglandins, Leukotrienes and Essential Fatty Acids, 1996
Studies of pulsatile arterial hemodynamics have emphasized that the pulsatile component of pulse pressure has two important characteristics: (i) it increases from central to peripheral arteries for a similar value of mean arterial pressure, and (ii) it is dominantly influenced by the amplitude and timing of the backward pressure wave.

Reflection of Short Waves

1987
Consider electromagnetic waves of angular frequency ω, incident on a planar inhomogeneity of thickness (or characterizing length) Δz. When (ω/c)Δz ≫ 1, and at normal incidence, there are many wavelengths within the inhomogeneity and (for smooth profiles) the change in the dielectric function within a wavelength is small. This is known as the short wave

Reflection of Long Waves

1987
We have seen in Section 2–2 that the reflection amplitudes of an arbitrary profile tend to the Fresnel values as the thickness Δz of the profile tends to zero. An equivalent limit to consider is that of reflection by a profile of fixed extent, as the wavelength increases.

On the Nonspecular Reflection of Electromagnetic Waves

Journal of Applied Physics, 1951
The nonspecular reflection of plane electromagnetic waves of arbitrary polarization by certain perfectly conducting surfaces composed of either semicylindrical or hemispherical bosses on an infinite plane is analyzed. Solutions for the problem of the single boss on an infinite plane and a plane wave at an arbitrary angle of incidence are given and ...

A note on reflection of spherical waves

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2005
In 1909 Sommerfeld gave an exact solution for the reflection of a spherical wave from a plane surface in terms of an oscillatory integral and also presented an asymptotic solution for the case where both source and receiver are at the boundary. Weyl (1919) presented an alternative solution and also an asymptotic solution for the case where the source ...

Non-uniqueness of reflected and transmitted waves

Mechanics Research Communications, 1996
This note discusses the nonuniqueness occurring when elastic waves are transmitted from a medium into a second one, and these media are separated by an interface \(S\). The authors show that for the reflection on a free boundary and for the reflection-transmission with horizontally polarized incident wave, there exist at least two distinct solutions ...

Gradual Reflection of Short Waves

SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 1975
Short wave asymptotic methods (geometrical optics, WKB, averaging and two-timing, etc.) fail to give information on the wave reflection caused by gradual variation of propagation speed with position. This paper examines plane wave propagation according to the classical wave equation in a medium of optical index of refraction changing analytically ...

Reflection Measurement of Low-Reflective Loads at Millimeter Waves

IEEE Transactions on Instrumentation and Measurement, 2016
The well-known cross-ratio method of correction of the complex reflection coefficient of low-reflective waveguide one-port devices, which is well established up to 110 GHz, is extended to millimeter wave frequencies where the impedance standard, a quarter-wavelength rectangular waveguide section at midband, may become too thin to be fabricated and ...
