Solving Maxwell's equations using the ultra weak variational formulation
We investigate the ultra weak variational formulation for simulating time-harmonic Maxwell problems. This study has two main goals. First, we introduce a novel derivation of the UWVF method which shows that the UWVF is an unusual version of the standard upwind discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method with a special choice of basis functions. Second, we discuss the practical implementation of an elect...
متن کاملThe Ultra-Weak Variational Formulation for Elastic Wave Problems
In this paper we investigate the feasibility of using the ultra weak variational formulation (UWVF) to solve the timeharmonic 3D elastic wave propagation problem. The UWVF is a non-polynomial volume based method that uses plane waves as basis functions which reduces the computational burden. More general, the UWVF is a special form of the discontinuous Galerkin method. As a model problem we con...
متن کاملComputational Aspects of the Ultra Weak Variational Formulation
The ultra weak variational formulation (UWVF) approach has been proposed as an effective method for solving Helmholtz problems with high wave numbers. However, for coarse meshes the method can suffer from instability. In this paper we consider computational aspects of the ultra weak variational formulation for the inhomogeneous Helmholtz problem. We introduce a method to improve the UWVF scheme...
متن کاملCombining the Ultra-Weak Variational Formulation and the Multilevel Fast Multipole Method
Because of its practical significance, many different methods have been developed for the solution of the time-harmonic Maxwell equations in an exterior domain at higher frequency. Often methods with complimentary strengths can be combined to obtain an even better method. In this paper we provide a numerical study of a method for coupling of the Ultra-Weak Variational Formulation (UWVF) of Maxw...
متن کاملError Estimates for the Ultra Weak Variational Formulation of the Helmholtz Equation
Abstract. The Ultra Weak Variational Formulation (UWVF) of the Helmholtz equation provides a variational framework suitable for discretization using plane wave solutions of the adjoint of the underlying equation. Currently convergence of the method is only proved on the boundary of the domain. However substantial computational evidence exists that shows that the method also converges throughout...
