TOMSK, Mar 22 – RIA Tomsk. Software, developed in Tomsk State University (TSU), will allow to model protective coatings, masking objects from electromagnetic radiation; such materials can be used for aircraft masking, "plugs" for cellular and even for an "invisibility cap" creation, the program developer Egor Yurchenko told RIA Tomsk on Tuesday.
The program of the Tomsk student can simulate the materials invisible to radio tomographs, but in the future will be possible the working out of invisible to the eye materials. According to Yurchenko, existing software hardly copes with the solution of such problems in real time, even on supercomputers.
"Here is used the special algorithm based on operations with independent blocks which on the given class of problems is to work fast. The existing software packages solve such tasks "brute-force", – told the interlocutor of the agency. As he said, similar metamaterials already exist. "Metamaterials are man-made crystals which are made of very small synthetic components, sometimes of nanoscale. In this way they demonstrate the special properties that are absent in natural materials", – said Yurchenko.He has added that with the help of the program it will be possible to create a casing for an aircraft which is impossible to detect by radar, as well as to make a "cap", which will be invisible itself, and all that is hidden under it – too. Presumably, in far prospect with the help of this software it will be possible to create a invisibility cloak, as in the books about Harry Potter.
