The proposed study involves Thermal Stress (TS), Eigen-frequency (EF) and Particle Tracing (PT) analysis performed with the Finite Element Method (FEM). These computations have been performed on COMSOL. Electric field related to the main resonant modes and particle trajectories have been computed in thermo mechanical operative conditions.

This rule is appropriate for electromagnetic analysis, but when the TLM model is used to solve inverse problems, such as computational imaging, source reconstruction, or structure synthesis - procedures that involve computational reversal of time - this wavelength restriction severely compromises the spatial resolution of the procedure by virtue of the Abbe limit. By discarding this rule we achieve super-resolution in source reconstruction using time reversal. We leverage the Johns Matrix concept and the reciprocity of TLM to achieve a breakthrough where previous attempts at structure synthesis through time reversal have been unsatisfactory.","PeriodicalId":273349,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Numerical Electromagnetic Modeling and Optimization for RF, Microwave, and Terahertz Applications (NEMO)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117126707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We establish our coarse model using a lookup table to store the data of coarse mesh EM simulations and its derivatives, avoiding the EM re-simulations w.r.t. the same values of design variables. In the proposed method, the surrogate model is developed using knowledge-based neural network (KBNN) combining the coarse model with a neural network. Our technique uses mostly coarse mesh EM evaluation and occasionally fine mesh EM evaluation to achieve optimal EM solutions with fine mesh accuracy. This technique is illustrated by two microwave filter examples.","PeriodicalId":273349,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Numerical Electromagnetic Modeling and Optimization for RF, Microwave, and Terahertz Applications (NEMO)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133397841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
