Scattering-based numerical methods are increasingly applied to thenumerical simulation of distributed time-dependent physicalsystems. These methods, which possess excellent stability andstability verification properties, have appeared in various guisesas the transmission line matrix (TLM) method, multidimensional wavedigital (MDWD) filtering and digital waveguide (DWN) methods. Thistext provides a unified framework for all of these techniques andaddresses the question of how they are related to more standardnumerical simulation techniques.
Covering circuit/scattering models in electromagnetics,transmission line modelling, elastic dynamics, as well astime-varying and nonlinear systems, this book highlights thegeneral applicability of this technique across a variety ofdisciplines, as well as the inter-relationships between simulationtechniques and digital filter design.
* provides a comprehensive overview of scattering-based numericalintegration methods.
* reviews the basics of classical electrical network theory, wavedigital filters, and digital waveguide networks.
* discusses applications for time-varying and nonlinearsystems.
* includes an extensive bibliography containing over 250references.
Mixing theory and application with numerical simulation results,this book will be suitable for both experts and readers with alimited background in signal processing and numerical techniques.

Über Autor(innen)

Stefan Bilbao received his BA in Physics at Harvard University ('92), then spent two years at the Institut de Recherche et Coordination Acoustique Musicale (IRCAM) in Paris as a student intern. He then completed the MSc and PhD degrees in Electrical Engineering at Stanford University ('96 and '01, respectively), while working at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics (CCRMA). His current research interests include the application of digital filtering and numerical simulation techniques to the physical modeling of musical instruments.
