  2. Projector augmented wave method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projector_augmented_wave...

    The projector augmented wave method (PAW) is a technique used in ab initio electronic structure calculations. It is a generalization of the pseudopotential and linear augmented-plane-wave methods , and allows for density functional theory calculations to be performed with greater computational efficiency.

  3. Sinusoidal plane-wave solutions of the electromagnetic wave ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinusoidal_plane-wave...

    The hats on the vectors indicate unit vectors in the x, y, and z directions. r = (x, y, z) is the position vector (in meters). The plane wave is parameterized by the amplitudes. Electromagnetic radiation can be imagined as a self-propagating transverse oscillating wave of electric and magnetic fields.

  4. Plane wave expansion method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_wave_expansion_method

    Plane wave expansion method (PWE) refers to a computational technique in electromagnetics to solve the Maxwell's equations by formulating an eigenvalue problem out of the equation. This method is popular among the photonic crystal community as a method of solving for the band structure (dispersion relation) of specific photonic crystal geometries.

  5. Electromagnetic wave equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_wave_equation

    where r = (x, y, z) is the position vector (in meters). These solutions represent planar waves traveling in the direction of the normal vector n . If we define the z direction as the direction of n , and the x direction as the direction of E , then by Faraday's Law the magnetic field lies in the y direction and is related to the electric field ...

  6. Wave equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_equation

    By comparison with vector wave equations, the scalar wave equation can be seen as a special case of the vector wave equations; in the Cartesian coordinate system, the scalar wave equation is the equation to be satisfied by each component (for each coordinate axis, such as the x component for the x axis) of a vector wave without sources of waves ...

  7. Envelope (waves) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Envelope_(waves)

    A modulated wave resulting from adding two sine waves of identical amplitude and nearly identical wavelength and frequency. A common situation resulting in an envelope function in both space x and time t is the superposition of two waves of almost the same wavelength and frequency: [2]

  8. Helical antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helical_antenna

    This means that for example a ⁠ 1 / 4wave antenna at 27 MHz is 2.7 m (110 inches; 8.9 feet) long and is physically quite unsuitable for mobile applications. The reduced size of a helical provides the same radiation pattern in a much more compact physical size with only a slight reduction in signal performance.

  9. Inverse Symbolic Calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_Symbolic_Calculator

    A user will input a number and the Calculator will use an algorithm to search for and calculate closed-form expressions or suitable functions that have roots near this number. Hence, the calculator is of great importance for those working in numerical areas of experimental mathematics. The ISC contains 54 million mathematical constants.
