Computation of radar cross section of jet engine inlets with a nonuniform cross section and complex

The finite element-boundary integral (FE-BI) method was used to calculate the radar cross section (RCS) of jet engine inlet geometries. Comparisons of numerical results with measurements are shown to demonstrate the capability of the method. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
