Reflection of Surface Plasmon Polaritons by a Corner Reflector of Negative Index Materials

A novel type of corner reflector for the reflection of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) is proposed. The reflector consists of two layers of compensatory media whose permittivity and permeability take opposite signs to that of the corresponding layer of the SP waveguide. By rigorously solving Maxwell's equations, the reflected SPP is proved to exist. The transverse wave vector of the reflected SPP is always antiparallel to that of the incident SPP and no phase retardation is introduced.     

On the solution of Maxwell's equations in polygonal domains

This paper is concerned with the structure of the singular and regular parts of the solution of time‐harmonic Maxwell's equations in polygonal plane domains and their effective numerical treatment. The asymptotic behaviour of the solution near corner points of the domain is studied by means of discrete Fourier transformation and it is proved that the solution of the boundary value problem does not belong locally to H² when the boundary of the domain has non‐acute angles. A splitting of the solution into a regular part belonging to the space H², and an explicitly described singular part is presented. For the numerical treatment of the boundary value problem, we propose a finite element discretization which combines local mesh grading and the singular field methods and derive a priori error estimates that show optimal convergence as known for the classical finite element method for problems with regular solutions.

Corner spontaneous magnetization

Details are given of a new method allowing an exact calculation of the spontaneous magnetization in the corner as well as along the edge at an arbitrary distance of the corner for a rectangular planar Ising ferromagnet.     

On a fast direct elliptic solver by a modified Fourier method

We describe high order numerical algorithms for the solution of second order elliptic equations in rectangular domains. These algorithms are based on the Fourier method in combination with a subtraction procedure. The singularities at the corner points, arising due to non-smoothness of the boundaries, are treated explicitly using properly constructed singular corner functions. The present algorithm is a generalization of the Fast Poisson Solver developed in our previous paper. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

On the robustness of Harris detector in image watermarking attacks

This paper investigates the misplacement issue presented on the detection of feature points by using the well-known Harris detector, under several watermarking attacks. Harris detector, as a powerful tool in finding image's points of high importance, called “interest points”, has been widely used to locate specific image portions where watermarks are embedded, according to some watermarking insertion procedure. Although Harris detector constitutes a significant part of a typical feature-based watermarking process, no work dealing with its performance under certain attacks has been reported yet. This work studies the accuracy of Harris detector in finding the feature points, which define the watermarked regions of attacked images, firstly as an individual processing module and secondly as a part of a feature-based watermarking methodology. Detailed theoretical analysis followed by appropriate simulation experiments has shown that the incorporation of the Harris detector into the watermarking procedure presents misplacement issues that can lead the watermarking algorithm to unreliable results. In the way of decreasing these misplacement errors, a novel algorithm that extracts more stable interest points, with promising performance is also proposed.

Stress intensity factors for corner cracks at a hole under remote tension

The three-dimensional weight function method recently developed by the authors is used to determine stress intensity factors for two symmetric quarter-elliptical corner cracks at a hole in a wide finite-thickness plate subjected to remote tensile loading. The geometry parameters considered arer/t=0.5, 1, 2;a/c=0.2, 0.5, 1, 2;a/t=0.2, 0.5 withinc/r=2. The results are compared, where possible, with other solutions available in the literature. Generally good agreement is observed. The effect of an approximation of the two-dimensional unflawed stress distribution on the accuracy of stress intensity factors by the weight function method is discussed.
