Stable Localized Modes in Asymmetric Waveguides with Gain and Loss
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

It is shown that asymmetric waveguides with gain and loss can support a stable propagation of optical beams. This means that the propagation constants of modes of the corresponding complex optical potential are real. A class of such waveguides is found from a relation between two spectral problems. A particular example of an asymmetric waveguide, d

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Forging is a complicated bulk metal forming process whereby the material undergoes excessive plastic deformation at elevated temperature. The physical phenomena constituting metal forming processes are difficult to express with quantitative relationships. In this paper, reduced experimental work combined with extensive numerical simulations with LS
