Electromagnetic and acoustic scattering problems can be usually formulated by suitable integral equations, where the kernel is given in terms of the fundamental solution of the Helmholtz operator. We can consider a special analytic method for the singular value expansion (SVE) of this integral...

The Canadian Fire Weather Index (FWI) is one of the most used tools to forecast forest fire hazard. In this paper, we propose an adaptation of the FWI to take into account the Mediterranean vegetation and climate, to improve FWI performances for areas with these characteristics. In particular,...
