Computational science research components were vital parts of the SciDAC1 accelerator project and are continuing to play a critical role in newly-funded SciDAC-2 accelerator project, the Community Petascale Project for Accelerator Science and Simulation (ComPASS). Recent advances and achievements in the area of computational science research in support of petascale electromagnetic modeling for ...

Many people are trying to be smarter every day. How's about you? There are many ways to evoke this case you can find knowledge and lesson everywhere you want. However, it will involve you to get what call as the preferred thing. When you need this kind of sources, the following book can be a great choice. numerical methods in computational electrodynamics linear systems in practical application...

Multigrid methods are ideal for solving the increasingly large-scale problems that arise in numerical simulations of physical phenomena because of their potential for computational costs and memory requirements that scale linearly with the degrees of freedom. Unfortunately, they have been historically limited by their applicability to elliptic-type problems and the need for special handling in ...

A comprehensive simulation of solidification/melting processes requires the simultaneous representation of free surface fluid flow, heat transfer, phase change, non-linear solid mechanics and, possibly, electromagnetics together with their interactions in what is now referred to as ’multi-physics’ simulation. A 3D computational procedure and software tool, PHYSICA, embedding the above multi-phy...

This paper presents an efficient technique for fast generation of sparse systems of linear equations arising in computational electromagnetics in a finite element method using higher order elements. The proposed approach employs a graphics processing unit (GPU) for both numerical integration and matrix assembly. The performance results obtained on a test platform consisting of a Fermi GPU (1x T...

Fast iterative analysis of two-dimensional scattering by a large but finite array of perfectly conducting strips requires efficient evaluation of the electric field. We present a novel multigrid algorithm that carries out this task in CN computer operations, where C depends logarithmically on the desired accuracy in the field, and N is the number of spatial gridpoints. Numerical results are pre...

Time-domain integral equation based solution techniques have gradually shifted over the last couple of years into the focus of computational electromagnetics research [1]. In this paper, we present a mesh-free time-domain integral equation solution for the problem of electromagnetic scattering by a two-dimensional metallic cylinder illuminated by a TM (transverse magnetic) plane wave pulse. In ...

New trends in parallel methods used to solve Finite Element matrix systems are presented: standard iterative and direct solving methods first, and then domain decomposition methods. For example, the current status and properties of two prevailing programming environments (PVM and MPI) are finally given and compared when implemented together with a Finite Element Time Domain formulation.

We apply the theory of transformation electromagnetics to source arrays and show that a complex conformal antenna array can be made to behave like a geometrically different array when surrounded with a properly designed transformation electromagnetics medium. Numerical simulations are presented to show how a nonuniform circular array can be made to radiate and receive as a uniformly spaced line...
