? about the math behind stealth

brad2000@gmail.com - 17 Jul 2008 05:05 GMT I remembering watching a TV show about the creation of Stealth technology. There was a comment about how the engineers at Northrup pretty much had figured out how stealth worked mathematically. But, there was a piece missing.
Apparently, there was a published Russian mathematician about "unifying" the magnetic & electrical field. Or some such theory that helped perfect the stealth technology.
I'm trying to tap the wisdom of the group to see if anyone can provide a reference to this mathematician, his work, and help me research this.
Thanks.

Think of a transmission line - you ened to terminate the signal so that there is no reflection. That's where the paint and no corners comes in.Finding the right materials is the tricky thing. Can't have been too difficult if the Yanks worked it out now can it?

Well said, kronec! The Educational System here in the USA is abominable. People are constantly admitted for "Multicultural Equality", an Educational Mafia is primarily concerned with its own Jobs, Ingenious Imitation replaces Creative Genius, and so on. While almost every University in the U.K. has high standards in the sciences, mathematics, and engineering, the only USA Universities that even have tolerable standards are: Princeton, Stanford, Chicago, MIT, CalTech, U. Florida northern campuses, U. Maryland, Johns Hopkins U., U Texas Austin, U. California San Diego, U. Missouri Columbia, Rutgers U., U. North Carolina, and the Military Academies (regarded as a single entry) including West Point and Annapolis and the Air Force Academy. Harvard used to be good but is now dominated by social science and humanities departments, while U.C. Berkeley is in a similar difficulty or worse. I've recently removed U. Virginia and George Mason U. Virginia from my list of tolerable USA Universities.

"Stealth technology" is a buzz word for a radar mirror, the math behind it is this: http://aic.stanford.edu/jaic/img/jaic32-03-006-fig002.jpg

But, > there was a piece missing. Well, the big piece missing is that they also figured out how radar iself work's mathematically. So stealth works's just like engineers at Northrup do. It's work fine until some other engineers invent GPS, Adaptive AI, Drones, and laser-guided bombs,

The mathemtaical basis of stealth technology was derived by Pyotr Ufimtsev, "Metod Kraevykh Voln v Fizicheskoi Teorii Difraktsii (Method of Boundary Waves in the Theory of Diffraction), (Moscow: Sov. Radio), 1962. The 242 page dense mathematical treatise was publically released by the Soviets without classification. Denys Overholser of Lockeed Skunkworks read a DoD translation and went to his boss, Ben Rich, with an idea.
Some years later Gulf War I had Russian emigree Pyotr Ufimtsev staring at his TV screen in disbelief shouting "SUKIN SYN!"

It also works for sound, hence stealthed submarines against sonar.

Which says: "Hence the momentum is almost certainly infinite, which corresponds to a speed of ±c."
This is in agreement with "the velocity of light in our theory plays the part, physically, of an infinitely great velocity" and similar drunken babble.

ecce.monkey@gmail.com - 17 Jul 2008 23:43 GMT On the same stealth subject, could someone comment on what the author says in this article...
http://www.ocnus.net/artman2/publish/Defence_Arms_13/The_Plane_That_Would_Bomb_I ran.shtml
He says, "An electric current runs from one end of the plane to the other. This forces radar that hits the plane to skim across the wings rather than bounce off and send a signal."
Does this sound right?

Imagine you are in a darkened chicken coop with a flashlight and a catapult, trying to hit a flying chicken. You have some success until the chicken starts to carry a mirror which reflects the walls of the coop back at you. You can't see the chicken, instead you see the walls and ceiling of the chicken coop as you sweep the flashlight around, searching. That's one stealthy chicken. The stealth's flat surfaces are mirrors to radar, what you get back is reflected clutter that you cannot lock onto and recognise as friend, foe or chicken.
