Emp Interaction Principles Techniques And Reference Data A Compleat Concatenation Of Technology From The Emp Interaction Notes Emp Interaction 2 1

This work is divided into three parts. The first part, Principles and Techniques, concerns general concepts and calculational procedures from electromagnetic theory relevant to EMP interaction. This contains a discussion of the concept of electromagnetic topology which is used to divide complex systems into somewhat natural smaller parts in an ordered way. This concept is fundamental to the organization and understanding of this work is expected to lead to further insights and computational techniques 2-8. The reader might consult a recent review paper 9 to put these in perspective including some concepts of potential future significance. The second part, Formulas and Data, considers the information concerning the pieces of the system. The organization of this part is based on the system topology, specifically the hierarchical topology which divides the system into layers. Each layer is further divided into three ordered parts: coupling, propagation, and penetration. Within each category the various individual (or canonical) types of boundary-value problems are considered. As one might expect, the bulk of the material is contained in this section. Having considered, first, the general concepts and techniques for EMP interaction and, second, the specific information concerning the pieces, we come to the third part, Systems Applications. This part attempts to illustrate the use of the previous parts in analyzing the EMP interaction with complex systems. Hypothetical system examples are chosen to illustrate the topological decomposition of the problem for selected signal paths, and the subsequent approximate calculation of the internal signals.

For senior undergraduates and beginning graduate students, this text discusses a unified approach to the role of hydrology in environmental planning and management. It emphasizes the consideration of the hydrologic continuum in determination of fate and migration of chemicals as well as microorganisms in the environment, both below and on the ground. Also discussed are the eco-hydrological consequences of environmental management. A current account of mathematical modeling of pollution in the hydrologic cycle is also presented.
