Kendall F. Casey
Kendall F. Casey was born in California in 1940. He was raised in
Hawaii and educated at Punahou School in Honolulu, graduating in 1957.
He received the BS degree in Engineering from the California Institute of
Technology in 1961 and the MSEE and Ph.D. from the University of
Southern California in 1962 and 1965. His dissertation dealt with Cerenkov
and transition radiation in a periodic dielectric medium.
As an active-duty Air Force officer, his duty assignment after completing
graduate school was to the electrical engineering facility of the Air Force
Institute of Technology at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio, where he served
until 1970, attaining the rank of Associate Professor. He developed new
course sequence in electromagnetic theory and statistical communication
theory and conducted an active program of research in electromagnetic
theory. He received the Air Force Research Award in 1968 for his work in
electromagnetics.
He joined the electrical engineering faculty at Kansas State University,
Manhattan, in the fall of 1970 and attained the rank of Professor in 1973.
His research efforts at KSU were directed toward analytical modeling of
propagation in inhomogeneous media and the development of models for the
shielding behavior of advanced composite materials. He also began work in
various aspects of nuclear electromagnetic pulse (EMP) coupling and
interaction with strategic systems, an area in which he was active for the
next twenty-five years.
He left KSU in 1978 to join the Dikewood Corporation as Director, and
later Vice-President, of electromagnetics research, working full-time on
EMP-related research and contributing to the EMP Interaction Handbook
edited by Dr. K.S.H. Lee. He moved in 1981 to Lawrence Livermore
National Laboratory as Group Leader in Electromagnetic Sciences and them
to JAYCOR in 1983 as Vice President for Electromagnetic Sciences. He
worked almost exclusively on EMP-related problems including EMP
simulation, coupling and interaction. He also developed models for the
electromagnetic signatures of charged-particle beams and high-power
microwave weapons. He served on a number of EMP-related Working
Groups for the Defense Nuclear Agency (now the Defense Threat Reduction
Agency).
He joined SRI International in Menlo Park, California in 1995, where he
is now a semi-retired Senior Research Engineer. His work at SRI has been
devoted to the mathematical modeling of electromagnetic and other wave
phenomena, most recently in application to ultrawideband radar signatures
of buried mines, UWB observations of the internal structure of buildings,
wave propagation in tunnels, and the propagation of ocean surface waves in
the linear and nonlinear regimes. He has also been active in applications of
detection and estimation theory to a variety of UWB radar problems.
Dr. Casey is a Senior Member of the IEEE, a member of Commission B
of USNC/URSI, and a member of Sigma Xi and Eta Kappa Nu. He is an
EMP Fellow of the Summa Foundation. Although much of his work has
been on a classified nature, he was able to be the author or co-author of well
over 100 journal articles and conference papers, several semi-technical
review articles on various aspects of EMP, numerous technical reports, and
book chapters. He is currently collaborating with Dr. C. Yeh and Dr. F.
Shimabukuro on a book dealing with dielectric waveguides.
