NUMERICAL METHODS FOR HOMOGENIZATION OF MAXWELL'S EQUATIONS
Christian Engström, Daniel Sjöberg · Lund University Publications (Lund University) · 2004
When the wavelength is much larger than the typical scale of the microstructure in a material, it is possible to define effective or homogenized material coefficients. Two numerical methods for the determination of the homogenized coefficients are compared. Numerical examples, where extreme properties of the effective material are achieved in the two dimensional case, are presented
