Abstract

This paper deals with the new results of the distributed point source method (DPSM). This method has been first developed at the SATIE lab, located at the École Normale Supérieure of Cachan, France. This method now allows the modelling of interactions between an incident wave and an obstacle. It can be applied in the non destructive testing area, using eddy currents or ultrasonic waves.
