Scattering of a time harmonic anti-plane shear wave due to either a pair of crack tips or a pair of rigid constraint tips on square lattice is considered. The two problems correspond to the so called zero-offset case of scattering due to a…
Scalar wave propagation across a semi-infinite step or step-like discontinuity on any one boundary of the square lattice waveguides is considered within nearest-neighbour interaction approximation. An application of the Wiener-Hopf method…
In conventional spectral/finite element methods, the triangulation/quadrilateralization of the domain produces many interior edges which require additional DOF. What if we could directly use the original hull without going to…

Evaluating the Kirchhoff-Fresnel diffraction integral is essential in studying wave effects in astrophysical lensing, but is often intractable because of the highly oscillatory integrated. A recent breakthrough was made by exploiting the…
