ISBN 978-953-7619-65-7 Preface In the recent decades, there has been growing interest in micro- and nanotechnology. The advances in nanotechnology give rise new applications and new types of materials with unique electromagnetic and mechanical properties. This book is devoted to the modern methods in electrodynamics and acoustics which have been developed to describe wave propagation in these modern materials and nanodevices. The book consists of original works of the leading scientists in the field of wave propagation which produced new theoretical and experimental methods in this field of research and obtained new and important results. The first part of the book consists of chapters with general mathematical methods and approaches to the problem of wave propagation. A special attention is attracted to the advanced numerical methods fruitfully applied in the field of wave propagation. The next chapters of the book are combined in several parts according to the materials in which the considering waves propagate. So, the second part of the book is devoted to the problems of wave propagation in newly developed metamaterials, micro- and nanostructures and porous media. In this part the interested reader find important and fundamental results on electromagnetic wave propagation in media with negative refraction index and electromagnetic imaging in devices based on the materials. The third part of the book is devoted to the problems of wave propagation in elastic and piezoelectric media. In the forth part the works on the problems of wave propagation in plasma are collected. The fifth, sixth and seventh parts are devoted to the problems of wave propagation in media with chemical reactions, in nonlinear and disperse media, respectively. And finally, in the eighth part of the book some experimental methods in wave propagations are considered. It is necessary to emphasis that this book is not a textbook. It is important that the results combined in it are taken “from the desks of researchers“. So, I am sure that in this book the interested and actively working readers (scientists, engineers and students) find many interesting results and new ideas.
