EB Scheme-Based Hybrid SE-FE DGTD Method for Multiscale EM Simulations

摘要

This communication presents an EB scheme subdomain-level discontinuous Galerkin time domain (DGTD) method for multiscale simulations. It is an extension of the previous subdomain-level DGTD research by combining the degree of freedom efficiency of spectral element time domain method and the mesh flexibility of the finite element time domain method. Thus, the multiscale problems can be solved efficiently by separating the geometrically fine and coarse parts and meshing them with hexahedrons and tetrahedrons, respectively, via a nonconformal mesh. The implicit-explicit Runge-Kutta method is applied to the EB scheme DGTD method to obtain an efficient time integration approach.
