Fast solvers for electromagnetic simulations - a new age analysis tool
Weng Cho Chew · The HKU Scholars Hub (University of Hong Kong) · 2000
The development of solution techniques for Maxwell's equations as an analysis tool is investigated. The solution techniques that were prevalent around the beginning of the 20th century are reviewed. One of these analysis methods for Maxwell's equations are the fast solvers. These fast solvers were developed for electrostatics, electrodynamics, as well as fast solvers that are continuously valid from static to electrodynamics, for the frequency and time domains, and for layered media. These fast solvers use resources that are orders of magnitude smaller than traditional numerical solvers.
