The effective elastic properties of materials containing spherical inclusions were calculated by the elastic wave scattering theory. In the formulation additional scattering fields by the presence of random multiple scatterers that affects the effective properties were found by the single scattering approximation. In calculating the scattering fields the ensemble average on the displacements and strains inside the scatterer was found from the static approximation at long wavelength limit. The displacements were assumed to be equal to the incident field, while the strains were calculated by Eshelby's equivalent inclusion principle on the single inclusion problem. Four different models were considered and they reflected different degrees of multiple scattering effects based on the approximation introduced in the process of embedding the inclusion in the matrix. The expressions for the effective elastic constants were given in each model, and their relations to the results obtained from other scattering theory and elasticity theory were discussed. The theoretical predictions were compared with experimental results on the epoxy matrix composites containing tungsten particles of different sizes and volume fractions

For prompt gamma ray imaging for biomedical applications and environmental radiation monitoring, we propose herein a multiple-scattering Compton camera (MSCC). MSCC consists of three or more semiconductor layers with good energy resolution, and has potential for simultaneous detection and differentiation of multiple radio-isotopes based on the measured energies, as well as three-dimensional (3D) imaging of the radio-isotope distribution. In this study, we developed an analytic simulator and a 3D image generator for a MSCC, including the physical models of the radiation source emission and detection processes that can be utilized for geometry and performance prediction prior to the construction of a real system. The analytic simulator for a MSCC records coincidence detections of successive interactions in multiple detector layers. In the successive interaction processes, the emission direction of the incident gamma ray, the scattering angle, and the changed traveling path after the Compton scattering interaction in each detector, were determined by a conical surface uniform random number generator (RNG), and by a Klein-Nishina RNG. The 3D image generator has two functions: the recovery of the initial source energy spectrum and the 3D spatial distribution of the source. We evaluated the analytic simulator and image generator with two different energetic point radiation sources (Cs-137 and Co-60) and with an MSCC comprising three detector layers. The recovered initial energies of the incident radiations were well differentiated from the generated MSCC events. Correspondingly, we could obtain a multi-tracer image that combined the two differentiated images. The developed analytic simulator in this study emulated the randomness of the detection process of a multiple-scattering Compton camera, including the inherent degradation factors of the detectors, such as the limited spatial and energy resolutions. The Doppler-broadening effect owing to the momentum distribution of electrons in Compton scattering was not considered in the detection process because most interested isotopes for biomedical and environmental applications have high energies that are less sensitive to Doppler broadening. The analytic simulator and image generator for MSCC can be utilized to determine the optimal geometrical parameters, such as the distances between detectors and detector size, thus affecting the imaging performance of the Compton camera prior to the development of a real system.

A general theory of scalar wave scattering by two separated particles is developed to give the coefficients of scattering and transmission in the form of recurrence formulae. Iterative applications of the formulae yield the coefficients in the form of power series of the coefficients obtained from single-particle scattering theories, and each term of the of power series can be interpreted as multiple scattering of the wave between the two particles in increasingly higher order.

Dot pattern print methods composed of a diffusion film and two prism sheets, have been generally used for backlighting systems of LCDs. However, this methods require complex structures and show high power consumption and optical loss. To improve these disadvantages of conventional backlight units, light guides using highly scattering optical transmissions (HSOT) polymer as scatters, have been introduced. In this study we analyzed multiple scattering effect in light guide by means of Monte carlo simulation based on Mie scattering theory and ray tracing method. As a result it was revealed that scattering intensity depends on the size of scatters. On the other hands, it was shown that scattering efficiency depends on the wavelength of fluorescent lamp as well as the size of scatters.

구름에서의 다중산란 효과는 Mie 산란현상을 이용하는 탄성산란 라이다에서 그 해를 구하는데 있어서, 매우 중요한 오차요인으로 작용하기 때문에 이 효과를 보정하는 것은 그 자체만으로도 매우 중요하다. 이를 위하여 구름에서 다중산란되는 현상을 Monte Carlo 방법으로 계산하였으며, 이 결과를 적용하여 물방울 구름의 총량과 유효입자크기를 추출하는 방법을 제안하였다. 구름의 유효입자 크기가 $2.5{\mu}m$ 이하일 경우엔 355 nm나 1064 nm에서 얻은 두 파장의 소광계수로 쉽게 그 값들을 구할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 크기가 큰 경우엔 라이다 신호의 안정화된 선형편광도가 유효입자크기, 총량, 그리고 소광계수와 관련이 있음을 알 수 있었으며, 이 관계를 통하여 큰 입자의 경우에도 라만 라이다와 편광 라이다를 이용한다면 유효입자크기와 총량을 구할 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The problem of polarized light scattering by a cylinder on or close to a planar substrate is analytically solved. The light is assumed to be normally incident to the axis of the cylinder. Transverse magnetic (TM) and transverse electric (TE) polarizations are treated separately. The solution for each polarization is composed of a coupled set of linear equations which couples the scattering characteristics of the cylinder and the planar substrate. The coupling comes from the scattering by the planar substrate and by the cylinder. The solution of the coupled set of equations obtained by iterative substitution consists of infinite series, where each term represents the contribution of single and multiple scatterings of all orders.

다중산란매질의 광학계수를 측정하기 위하여 광세기의 변화와 위상차이를 동시에 측정하는 주파수 영역 분광장치를 구성하고, 산란과 흡수가 다른 매질 조건하에서 진폭 변조된 광을 입사시킨 후 후방 산란광의 교류 및 위상지연 성분을 heterodyne 검지 방법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 실험을 통하여 산란자와 흡수체의 농도가 증가함에 따라 흡수계수와 수송산란 계수는 선형적으로 증가함을 확인할 수 있었으며, 흡수계수와 수송산란계수를 확산이론을 이용하여 구할 수 있었다. 광원과 검출기의 거리, 변조주파수에 따라 측정 가능한 광학계수의 범위를 분석하였다. 레이저 다이오드를 사용하는 소형화된 이 장치는 생체조직과 같은 다중 산란매질의 비침습적 광학계수 측정에 이용될수 있으리라 기대된다.

In this paper, design and fabrication of a MSP(Multiple Scattering Points) discriminator for a simulated target measurement using a HRR(High Range Resolution) RADAR are described. The MSP discriminator is designed to provide a reference signal at the installed point on the simulated target in an outdoor test. The MSP discriminator is designed to have a remote control function that can turn the MSP discriminator on and off when the target moves to a remote location. While the MSP discriminator is off, the MSP discriminator is designed to be small enough not to spoil the target's unique RCS. The MSP discriminator consists of RF components in the Ku-band. In order to prevent spreading of the signal, a cable were added to the MSP discriminator to have an appropriate feedback loop delay considering the resolution of the RADAR. The fabricated MSP discriminator provided a reference scattering point as an RCS of approximately 1 dBsm. As a result, by using the MSP discriminator, the physical scattering points of the target were clearly identified in the measured signals with the RADAR.

In this study, simulations were done of a 661.6 keV line from a point source of $^{137}Cs$ housed in a lead shield. When increasing the scattering angle from 60 to 120 degrees with a 6061 aluminum alloy target placed at angles of 30 and 45 degrees to the incident beam, the spectra showed that the single scattering component increases and that the multiple scattering component decreases. The investigation of the single and multiple scattering components was carried out using a MCNP5 simulation code. The component of the single Compton scattering photons is proportional to the target electron density at the point where the scattering occurs. The single scattering peak increases according to the thickness of the target and saturates at a certain thickness. The signal-to-noise ratio was found to decrease according to the target thickness. The simulation was experimentally validated by measurements. These results will be used to determine the best conditions under which this method can be applied to testing electron densities or to assess the thickness of samples to locate defects in them.
