Bloch wave – MoM method the wave numbers in any of the 3 periodic coordinate directions. This can happen for example when the free space wavelength exactly equals the lattice spacing. This is a statistically rare occurrence in computational practice and corresponds to a propagation anomaly similar to a Wood's reflection anomaly for gratings. To compute bands of the crystal (i.e. "k"-"k" diagrams), successive values of frequency ("k") are tried - in conjunction with pre-selected values of propagation constant ("k") and propagation direction (θ & φ) - until a combination is found which drives the determinant of the matrix to zero. Equation (4.2) has been
The Crests charted with their first release, "Sweetest One", on Joyce Records. After recording two more singles for Joyce Records, Patricia Vandross left The Crests in 1958 to finish her education. Their next single after "16 Candles" on COED Records was "Six Nights A Week" which hit #28 on the "Billboard" Hot 100 Charts and #17 on the R&B. Their next release "Flower Of Love" was bland compared to other Crests cuts and attained only a six-week run-up to #79. From 1958 to 1960 the group was almost always on the road. In the late 1950s, The Crests performed on several national
