Progress in electromagnetics research
13 July 1998 - 13 July 1998
France
An international conference and workshop (PIERS'98) on electromagnetic theory and complex media and measurement techniques will be held in Nantes, France, from 13 to 17 July 1998. The event is supported by the European Commission, under the Industrial and Materials Technologies research programme (BRITE/EURAM).
The aim of the event is to discuss the latest developments in electromagnetic simulation of composite and complex materials and the associated measurement techniques for deriving the main properties of these materials. This will include the specification of applications of these complex materials in domains such as aeronautics, automotive and telecommunications.
The electromagnetic behaviour of complex materials needs to be understood in order to avoid phenomena such as interference with the electronic components embedded inside. This may also help to reduce other phenomena such as wave transmission or reflection through composite materials.
The workshop, to be held during PIERS'98, intends to review the state-of-the-art and to discuss the possible applications of these complex materials, with an international community of researchers.
The conference will also review and discuss the results of research into new theories and computer codes which have had to be developed in order to correctly determine the electromagnetic properties of complex materials, such as photonic band-gap materials, non-linear media and fractal media. The validation of the theoretical and computer code results through electromagnetic measurement techniques will also be discussed, covering the possibilities of extrapolating these techniques to other properties of these materials.
