Klappentext

Zusammenfassung
This book presents a novel methodology for the computation of RCS of metallic structures using a parallelized version of NEC in conjunction with a finite element preprocessor which has been strategically incorporated for simplifying geometry modelling catering to NEC guidelines. It includes a thorough overview of the theoretical background of NEC including all relevant aspects of formulation and modelling. The revised methodology including all the required steps and details is discussed elaborately along with case studies and validations. This book will serve as a valuable resource for students, researchers, scientists, and engineers working in the field of RCS predictions and measurements.
