In a companion report, we have derived a method for finding the impedance at high frequencies of vacuum chamber transitions that are short compared to the catch-up distance, in a frequency regime that—in analogy to geometric optics for light—we call the optical regime. In this report we apply the method to various nonaxisymmetric geometries such as irises/short collimators in a beam pipe, step-in transitions, step-out transitions, and more complicated transitions of practical importance. Most of our results are analytical, with a few given in terms of a simple one-dimensional integral. Our results are compared to wakefield simulations with the time-domain, finite-difference program echo, and excellent agreement is found.
