High-frequency scattering by a convex soft or a rigid obstacle
Abstract
The problem of high-frequency scattering by a rigid smooth convex object is solved by the method of boundary layers and a uniformly valid asymptotic expansion in all regions is presented. A solution to Herman's problem for a soft object is described. Results are illustrated for the specific case of a sphere.
