Two-dimensional electromagnetic scattering analysis based on the boundary element method

Abstract

An effective formula for the shape-sensitivity analysis of electromagnetic scattering is presented in this paper. First, based on the boundary element method, a new electromagnetic scattering formula is derived by combining the traditional electromagnetic scattering formula with the non-uniform rational B-spline (NURBS) curve, and the geometric model is represented by NURBS, which ensures the geometric accuracy, avoids the heavy grid division in the optimization process, and realizes the fast calculation of high-fidelity numerical solutions. Second, by deducing the sensitivity variables, the electromagnetic scattering equation of shape optimization is obtained, which can provide reliable data references for shape optimization. Finally, the effectiveness and accuracy of the algorithm are demonstrated by an example, and the sensitivity data of some examples are given.
