Diffusion-Wave Fields

by Andreas Mandelis

This book develops a unified mathematical framework for treating a wide variety of diffusion-related periodic phenomena in such areas as heat transfer, electrical conduction, and light scattering. Deriving and using Green functions in one and higher dimensions to provide a unified approach, the author develops the properties of diffusion-wave fields first for the well-studied case of thermal-wave fields and then applies the methods to nonthermal fields. The presentation, largely in the form of case studies directly applicable in a wide range of experimental methodologies, is intended for...
