    Scattering of Light from the Systemic Circulatory System

    No full text
    There are many factors of methodological origin that influence the measurement of optical properties of the entire circulatory system which consists of blood as the basic component. The basic idea of this review article is to provide the optical properties of the circulatory system with all those factors of influence that have been employed in biomedical optics for different applications. We begin with the available optical properties, i.e., absorption, scattering and, reduced scattering coefficient, in general for any tissue inside the human body and prominent scattering theories (e.g., light, X-rays, neutrons) that are helpful in this regard. We have reviewed and compiled already available formulas and their respective available data for different human tissues for these optical properties. Then we have descended to the blood composition and to different scattering techniques available in the literature to study scattering and light propagation inside blood. We have reviewed both computational and theoretical scattering techniques

    To study the Mueller matrix polarimetry for the characterization of wood and Teflon flat samples

    No full text
    In our manuscript, we carry out the Mueller matrix polarimetry for the characterization of wood and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) or Teflon flat samples. Polarization measurements allows to enhance the imaging contrast of the anisotropic wood (Horizontal (H) and Vertical (V)) superficial fibers tissues and isotropic material (Teflon). We study the polarization-sensitive parameters for better investigations of the micro- and macro- structural and optical properties of complex tissues. The polarization imaging methodology has evolved to accept increasingly complex parametric measurements. The Mueller matrix is now generally calculated using a polarimetry technique. Herein, we attempt to study the difference between wood H, wood V, and Teflon samples. We calculated 3×3 Mueller matrix, which can be used to describe an intuitive overview of the material characteristics. We have interpreted our experimental results of Mueller matrix coefficients in terms of graphical representation using two different approaches named MS1 and MS2. This study gives us a new idea on the contrast mechanisms of polarization-sensitive measurements for different samples wood H, wood V, and Teflon and may provide new and simple diagnostic techniques for biological applications

    Cloaking using anisotropic multilayer circular cylinder

    No full text
    In this article, we study a homogenization model for cloaking applications. In the given model, we consider an isotropic inner layer, which iscoated with a multilayer anisotropic circular cylinder. We describe the electrostatic response of a polarly radially anisotropic (PRA) multilayercircular cylinder. It consists of different components of permittivity in radial and tangential directions for each layer. We have shown themathematical derivation of the polarizability and effective permittivity of a PRA multilayer circular cylinder. Moreover, we demonstrate thecloaking behavior using a PRA multilayer circular cylinder. Meanwhile, we test our formation with advanced computational approaches.During our numerical test, we have investigated the numerical results of the polarizability of a PRA multilayer circular cylinder. We employan inner cloak surrounded by a multilayer anisotropic circular cylinder. However, for an ideal cloak, the contrast between the permittivityparameters approaches infinity

    Multiple scattering by two PEC sphere

    No full text
    An analysis of multiple scattering by two Perfect Electric Conducting (PEC) sphere using translation Addition Theorem (AT) for spherical vector wave equation is presented. Specifically, Cruzan formalism is used to represent the AT for spherical harmonics, which introduced translation coefficients for transformation of spherical harmonic from one coordinate to another. These coefficients allow a very efficient solution for the calculation of multiple scattering electric field using two PEC sphere in a near zone region. The numerical simulations are included the validity of the multiple scattering behavior

    Mueller matrix polarimetry for differentiating characteristic features of different materials (wood, shinning steel, unpolished plastic)

    No full text
    Polarization measurements improve the imaging contrast by using various samples (wood,shinning steel,unpolished plastic). For better explanations of the micro and macro-structures and basic characteristics of the materials, we perform Mueller matrix imaging on various samples, expressed by the characteristic features of the 3×3 Mueller matrix elements. This research gives new ideas for various samples on the contrast mechanisms of Mueller matrix components, which can provide new diagnostic techniques for biomedical applications

    No full text
    This article presents the inspection of a Transparent Radially Anisotropic (TRA) cylinder with permittivity dyadic, in the electrostatic settings. The quasistatic polarizability of the TRA cylinder with the values and signs of permittivity components offering different interesting features, involving absorbance, anomalous losses, resonant singularities, invisibility. In this manuscript, we have a special focus on the electrostatic response of a circular cylinder with a certain condition of anisotropic parameters. We study the stimulating behaviour of polarizability of a TRA cylinder in quadrant (plane geometry). We have also computed the TRA cylinder behavior as a cloak using suitable choices of the anisotropic parameters

    Scattering from a cylindrical obstacle deeply buried beneath a planar non-integer dimensional dielectric slab using Kobayashi potential method

    No full text
    Mathematical formulation for the far-zone field scattered by a cylindrical obstacle deeply buried beneath a planar dielectric slab has been presented. Method known as Kobayashi potential method has been employed for this purpose and transverse electric uniform plane wave has been used as a source of excitation. It has been assumed that dimension of space within slab is non-integer in the direction normal to planar interfaces of the slab. Moreover, it has also been assumed that distance of each interface of the slab from obstacle is very large as compared to size of the obstacle. Due to this assumption scattered field after reflection from the slab has no interaction with the obstacle and the situation has been called deeply buried. Field pattern has also been obtained and compared with the published work
