Plane wave expansion method — (PWE) refers to a computational technique in Electromagnetics,solve the Maxwell s equations by formulating an Eigenvalue problem out of it. This method isa popular among Photonic Crystal community, as a method of solving for the band structure… … Wikipedia
Monochromatic electromagnetic plane wave — In general relativity, the monochromatic electromagnetic plane wave spacetime is the analog of the monochromatic plane waves known from Maxwell s theory. The precise definition of the solution is a bit complicated, but very instructive. Any exact … Wikipedia
Expansion chamber — An Expansion chamber is an exhaust system used on a two stroke cycle engine to enhance its power output by improving its volumetric efficiency. It makes use of the energy left in the burnt exhaust exiting the cylinder to aid the filling of the… … Wikipedia
Bloch wave — A Bloch wave or Bloch state, named after Felix Bloch, is the wavefunction of a particle (usually, an electron) placed in a periodic potential. It consists of the product of a plane wave envelope function and a periodic function ( periodic Bloch… … Wikipedia
