Long-distance transmission of energy by waves is a key mechanism for many natural processes. It becomes possible when the inhomogeneous medium is arranged in such a manner that it enables a specific type of waves to propagate with virtually…
In recent times it has been paid attention to the fact that (linear) wave equations admit of "soliton-like" solutions, known as Localized Waves or Non-diffracting Waves, which propagate without distortion in one direction. Such Localized…
Since the early works[1-4] on the so-called nondiffracting waves (called also Localized Waves), a great deal of results has been published on this important subject, from both the theoretical and the experimental point of view. Initially,…

A new class of solitary waves arises in the solution of nonlinear wave equations with constant impedance and no dispersive terms. They depend on a balance between nonlinearity and a dispersion-like effect due to spatial variation in the…
We study waves governed by the planar Helmholtz equation, propagating in an infinite lattice of subwavelength Dirichlet scatterers, the periodicity being comparable to the wavelength. Applying the method of matched asymptotic expansions,…
Multi-scale wave propagation problems are computationally costly to solve by traditional techniques because the smallest scales must be represented over a domain determined by the largest scales of the problem. We have developed and…
In this work it is shown how to obtain, in a simple way, localized (non- diffractive) subluminal pulses as exact analytic solutions to the wave equations. These new ideal subluminal solutions, which propagate without distortion in any…
High-frequency solutions of one or several Schr\"odinger-type equations are well known to differ very little from the plane wave solutions $\exp[\pm ik x]$. That is, the potential terms impact the envelope of a high-frequency plane wave by…

A theoretical model to explain the scattering process of wave attenuation in a marginal ice zone is developed. Many field observations offer wave energy decay in the form of exponential function with distance, and this is justified through…
