Kinetics of Swelling Gels
We develop a general theory of the swelling kinetics of polymer gels, with the view that a polymer gel is a two-phase fluid. The model we propose is a free boundary problem and ca...

Wave Attenuation through Multiple Rows of Scatterers with Differing Periodicities
A solution method is proposed for calculating wave scattering by a multiple-row array in which the rows are permitted to have different periodicities. Each individual row contains ...
