Experience Electrophysical devices, nuclear reactors, X-ray lasers: Mathematical models for ionizing radiation transport (neutrons, gamma and X-rays) in devices and media have been formulated. In professional publications (see the Brief List of Related Publications below), the approach for simulation of photon transport through large optical depths was proposed; neutron spectrum of nuclear impulse reactors was analyzed, radiation formation in single-pass laser by analytical technique and mathematical modeling based on integral form of the radiation transport equation were analyzed.

A new approach for generation of high power microwaves and a new scheme of high-gradient accelerator were proposed and developed, a new model and method of electromagnetic wave interaction with corrugated waveguide were developed, a scheme of electron beam recuperator was elaborated, multi-channel planar FEM mm-generator operation was investigated, electromagnetic waves propagation in atmosphere and concrete were researched, models and methods to investigate system-generated electromagnetic pulse (SGEMP) and internal electromagnetic pulse (IEMP) in complex 3D–objects were developed, models for propagation of electromagnetic waves in the complex non-uniform and anisotropic media were developed. In the frame of this work analytical technique based on integral equation methods, numerical technique based on integral equation and time-domain methods for solution of Maxwell’s and Vlasov equations have been widely used. The last was solved by particle-in-cell method and finite difference methods. Stochastic process: Mathematical models for free surface dynamics in heterogeneous stochastic media have been formulated. New approaches for simulation of water transport with free surfaces in heterogeneous stochastic media were proposed and models for investigation of such systems were developed. It is based on mapping technique and method of stochastic Green’s function (integral approach). Inverse problems: Mathematical models and algorithms for reconstruction of neutron spectrum in nuclear impulse reactors, electric signals in long cable lines, neutron and gamma-ray spectrum in scintillator detectors, electromagnetic logging in a borehole were formulated. The approach of constringent compact space defined by integral transport equation was developed for reconstruction of neutron spectrum. A new method for solving of inverse problems during electromagnetic logging based on the thinning technique was proposed. Numerical analysis: Computer models for simulation of plasma process, electromagnetic wave propagation and electric signals in cable lines on the basis of finite-difference approach have been developed. Discretization schemes and effective numerical methods and algorithms for physical process simulation and device modeling (particle-in-cell method, finite difference scheme for Maxwell’s equations, wave and transport equations) were formulated. Software development: As a team leader, developed the system of 3D modeling of SGEMP and IEMP phenomena, codes and a library for simulation of direct and inverse electromagnetic problems, for induction logging, a code for simulation of free surface moving in stochastic media, a code for simulation of electromagnetic waves interaction with Bregg reflectors in planar waveguides, a code for simulation of free electron laser operation. Software (with GUI) for numerical simulation of resonant detection of buried objects with Electromagnetic wave Detection and Imaging Transceiver detector (EDIT) were developed under contract with Stolar Horizon Inc. (USA). These simulation tools have been used in research and microwave device designing. As a team leader worked in 1. Project #299-95 “Superlight Source of Electromagnetic Radiation.
