The Influence of Boundary Conditions on Resonant Frequencies of Cavities in 3-D FDTD Algorithm Using Non-orthogonal Co-ordinates

چکیده
Abslrczc-The 3-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method in non-orthogonal co-ordinates (non-standard FDTD) is used to calculate the frequencies of resonators. The numerical boundary conditions of the method are presented. The influences of boundary conditions and discrete meshes on the numerical accuracy are investigated. We present the nonstandard FDTD method using the boundary-orthogonal mesh and equivalent dielectric constant so that the error is reduced from 8.6% to 3.0% for the cylindrical cavity loaded by a dielectric button.

On the Analysis of Resonators Using Finite-Difference Time-Domain Techniques
Because a resonator with perfect electrically conducting (PEC) walls has no complications with absorbing boundary conditions and, for canonical geometries, the resonant frequencies are trivial to find, resonators are often used for analyzing the performance of finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) methods. However, when testing the performance of boundary implementations in an FDTD scheme, one s...

In this paper, the flexural free vibrations of three dimensional micro beams are investigated based on strain gradient theory. The most general form of the strain gradient theory which contains five higher-order material constants has been applied to the micro beam to take the small-scale effects into account. Having considered the Euler-Bernoulli beam model, governing equations of motion are w...
