Abstract

The pattern equations method is extended to solving the problems of wave scattering by bodies with piecewise smooth boundaries. The method is based on the reduction of the initial boundary-value problem to an integro-operator equation of the second kind in the scattering pattern of a body. With the use of the series expansion of the scattering pattern in angular spherical harmonics, the problem is ultimately reduced to solving an infinite algebraic system of equations in the expansion coefficients of the scattering pattern. The conditions at which this system can be solved by the method of reduction are formulated. Examples of solving the problems of wave scattering by bodies with impedance boundaries are considered. Essential advantages of the proposed method over other known methods are demonstrated.
