Advanced Computational Electromagnetic Methods

The 12 chapters in this volume detail methods and applications in advanced computational electromagnetics (CEM). Engineers from North America, China, and Europe describe the use of spectral domain analysis to retrieve the absolute electric field magnitude and phase values in the near-field region of an antenna; a high-order finite difference time domain (FDTD) method; a general-purpose computing technique on a graphics processing unit to achieve higher performance of the FDTD method than a central processing unit for simulation of microwave circuits; recent FDTD advances for electromagnetic wave propagation in the ionosphere; the Phi coprocessor acceleration techniques in computational electromagnetic methods; domain decomposition methods for finite element analysis of large-scale electromagnetic problems; high-accuracy computations for electromagnetic integral equations; and a fast electromagnetic solver based on randomized pseudo-skeleton approximation. Other chapters cover computational electromagnetics for the evaluation of electromagnetic compatibility issues in multicomponent energy systems; the manipulation of electromagnetic waves based on new unique metamaterials; a time-domain integral equation method for transient problems; and stochastic modeling methods and computational electromagnetics as applied to human exposure assessment.
