This includes the generation of curvilinear elements for higher order modeling of geometry, implementation of polynomial vector basis functions for higher order modeling of fields within the elements, and Galerkin testing method for discretizing the wave equations.

Both methods take different approaches to solving integral equations. GMM is a highly flexible scheme that permits the use of different basis functions for each patch and, as a result, is highly customizable. The crux to this approach is local surface parameterization and transition maps between different local parameterizations in regions where patches overlap. Subdivision offers an effective approach to overcome this bottleneck. Its efficacy and related challenges have been demonstrated through examples. Indeed, it is possible to pair subdivision GMM with methods developed in [14] to efficiently evaluate integrals to solve problems that are electrically large and geometrically complex.","PeriodicalId":287175,"journal":{"name":"New Trends in Computational Electromagnetics","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116480598","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}

While new applications of TDIEs are likely to continue pouring in, multiphysics and electromagnetic physics appear to be the short-term trajectory of these newest computational electromagnetics methods.

Research aimed at solving complex electromagnetic problems that can involve large numbers of unknowns plays a relevant role in the development of many real-life applications. In this context, the fast multipole method (FMM) and the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) have been extensively used for accelerating iterative solutions of dense matrix systems resulting from the application of the method of moments (MoM) to problems formulated with surface integral equations (SIEs). The purpose of using these acceleration techniques is to extend the applicability of MoM, whose matrix storage requirement is O(N2 ), while the number of operations is O(N3 ) for direct solutions or O(N2 ) for iterative solutions, to larger problems. FMM and MLFMA reduce computational costs to O(N1.5 ) and 0(N log N), respectively.","PeriodicalId":287175,"journal":{"name":"New Trends in Computational Electromagnetics","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125251852","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}
