Abstract

This report summarizes the work performed for Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) at the University of Washington between September 2004 and May 2006. This project studied fast solvers and stability for time domain integral equations (TDIE), especially as applied to radiating boundary for a massively parallel FEM solver.

Hybrid Finite Element-Fast Spectral Domain Multilayer Boundary Integral Modeling of Doubly Periodic Structures

Technical Report T.F. Eibert ; J.L. Volakis ; Y.E. Erdemli

Hybrid finite element (FE)--boundary integral (BI) analysis of infinite periodic arrays is extended to include planar multilayered Green's functions. In this manner, a portion of the volumetric dielectric region can be modeled via the finite element method whereas uniform multilayered regions can be modeled using a multilayered Green's function. As such, thick uniform substrates can be modeled without loss of efficiency and accuracy. The multilayered Green's function is analytically computed in the spectral domain and the resulting BI matrix-vector products are evaluated via the fast spectral domain algorithm (FSDA). As a result, the computational cost of the matrix-vector products ismore »« less

Staggered-grid finite element solution technique for the Maxwell's equations in the time domain

Conference Lee, R.L. ; Madsen, N.K.

In this paper, the authors present a two-dimensional Galerkin finite element formulation of the Maxwell's equations in the time domain. The Galerkin element integrals are computed analytically and an explicit forward-backward time integration scheme is employed for advancing the resulting set of ordinary differential equations in time. The authors will compare two formulations of the simple 4-node bilinear element: (i) an equal-order interpolation element in which both the electric field and the magnetic field are approximated by bilinear basis functions; and (ii) a mixed-interpolation element in which the electric field is approximated as piecewise constant and the magnetic field asmore »« less

MAX3D: A three-dimensional finite-element computer program for solving Maxwell's equations

Technical Report Cook, W.A.

MAX3D is a three-dimensional computer program for solving Maxwell's electromagnetic field equations. The equations solved by this code neglect the displacement current and charge density. This report documents Maxwell's electromagnetic field equations, the simplifying assumptions, and the boundary conditions. The field equations are then written in terms of a scalar potential and a vector potential. A variational principle, which is presented in terms of these potentials, is equivalent to Maxwell's theory and to the boundary conditions. Finite-element approximations applied to the variational principle give a set of linear algebraic equations that can be solved to approximate the electric and magneticmore » fields.« less
Mixed-hybrid finite element approximations of second-order elliptic boundary-value problems. II. Weak-hybrid methods

Technical Report Babuska, I. ; Oden, J.T. ; Lee, J.K.

A new class of hybrid finite element methods for the numerical analysis of second-order elliptic boundary-value problems is presented. The methods are characterized by the use of particular solutions of the differential equation being solved, in contrast to conventional hybrid methods, in which polynomial approximations are used. As a model problem the Dirichlet problem for Laplace's equation is studied. A priori error estimates are derived, and the results of numerical experiments are presented. 3 figures, 1 table.
