In this paper, the electromagnetic modeling and network analysis are proposed for design of GTEM cell operating from DC to 18 GHz. 3D electromagnetic numerical analysis models composed of the coaxial mode-converter for the feeder of GTEM cell, 5 m expanded rectangular coaxial transmission line, and the resistive termination load for current and field transmitted from the feeder are developed. Equivalent network model of feeder, transmission line, and termination load in the GTEM cell is also proposed, so the return loss of GTEM cell is calculated using S-parameters using the electromagnetic numerical analysis. To verify the proposed design method, the GTEM cell is designed, constructed and tested, with its size of $5{\times}2.5{\times}1.7\;m$ and operating frequency of $DC{\sim}18\;GHz$.

An experimental investigation has been made to study the interaction between and incident oblique shock wave and an unstabilized turbulent boundary layer on a solid surface downstream of a porous surface with air injection through the porous surface. The boundary layer upstream of the interaction is unstabilized by the injection and provokes a shock wave which eventually interacts with the unstabilized boundary layer after reflecting from the upper wall of the test section. Three cases having diferent upstream Mach numbers and different shock strengthes are studied. According to the level of the unstabilization, two cases are of attached boundary layers and the other one is of a separated boundary layer. The result shows that the reflected wavey system is composed of the compression wave, expansion wave fan, and recompression wave like the ordinary interaction while the separated boundary layer strengthens the reflected expansion waves. The interactions of the attached boundary layers show a similar tendency of the upstream wall pressure distribution as that of the ordinary interacton but the pressure rise rather decays in the downstream region. In case of the separated boundary layer, the wall pressure continues to rise in the downstream as opposed ot the former cases. This indicates that the interaction region spreads out widely adn the viscous effect of the separated boundary layer smoothens the abrupt pressure increase due to the shock inpingement.

We have numerically analyzed the electromagnetic wave scattering from randomly rough dielectric surfaces by using the finite volume time domain (FVTD) method. We have then shown that the present method yields a reasonable solution even at low-grazing angle (LGA). It should be noted that the number of sampling points per wavelength should be increased when more accurate numerical results are required, which fact makes the computer simulation impossible at LGA for a stable result. However, when the extrapolation is used for calculating the scattered field, an accurate result can be estimated. If we want to obtain the ratio of backscattering between the horizontal and vertical polarization, we do not need the large number of sampling points. The results are compared with the experimental data.

The high resolution of positron emission tomography, in particular, requires the use of detector crystals of narrow width but still with sufficiently high detection efficiency. If the crystal width is reduced to several millimeters, degradation of detection efficiency and leakage coefficient becomes significant, particularly in case of obliquely incident photons. Alleviation of such a problem can be made possible by modification of the detector shape from the conventional rectangular type to a wed농e type. The Proposed wedge shape makes the absorption length longer for obliquely incident photons, thus increasing the detection efficiency and suppressing leakage coefficient. For the BGO detectors of 4-8mm width, the computer simulation result of the system using wedge detectors reveals resolution improvement to the system using conventional detectors. For the system composed of 200 BGO detectors of 8mm width with 2 point sampling motion, the simulation resolution system using conventional detectors. For the very high resolution system of 3-7mm FWHM, the characteristics of the detector shape and size is studied by computer simulation.
