Applying Polarimetric Target Decomposition to 2D Turntable ISAR Imagery of a Complex Vehicle by Sevket Demirci

“…To characterize target’s anisotropic scattering properties, wide-angle case is considered through the employment of a distinct polarimetric analysis procedure based on angular averaging of the covariance matrix. The results of the application of the three types of coherent decomposition, that is, Pauli, Krogager, and Cameron decomposition, and one incoherent decomposition, that is, eigenvector/eigenvalue decomposition, are analyzed and compared in terms of the identification of the physical scattering mechanisms. …”

A Simplified Two-Fluid Model Based on Equilibrium Closure for a Dilute Dispersion of Small Particles by S. Balachandar

“…Two-fluid formalisms that fully account for all complex inter-phase interactions have been developed based on a rigorous ensemble-averaging procedure. Here, we apply equilibrium approximation to particle velocity to simplify two-phase flow equations for the case of a dilute dispersion of particles much smaller than the flow scales. …”
