Radiation from an axial electric dipole with prolate spheroidal metamaterial cloak cover
Exact analytical expressions for the electromagnetic field due to a dipole source located inside and along the axis of symmetry of a prolate spheroid are provided.
Exact radiation for dipoles on metallic spheroids at the interface between isorefractive half-spaces
Oblate and prolate metallic spheroids located at the interface between isorefractive half-spaces are considered. The electromagnetic fields produced by electric and magnetic dipoles located on the symmetry axis of the structure are determined exactly. Particular cases are discussed, and numerical results are presented for far fields and surface currents.
Biodiversity, conservation, and sustainable development
This important book highlights the conflicts between economic growth and the conservation of nature in the context of sustainable development. It places particular emphasis on biological diversity and examines possible policies for resolving conflicts which arise from the contrasting goals of conserving the natural environment and economic growth.
