Computational Methods for Electromagnetic Phenomena

Beschreibung

A unique and comprehensive graduate text and reference on numerical methods for electromagnetic phenomena, from atomistic to continuum scales, in biology, optical-to-micro waves, photonics, nanoelectronics and plasmas. The state-of-the-art numerical methods described include: ¿ Statistical fluctuation formulae for the dielectric constant ¿ Particle-Mesh-Ewald, Fast-Multipole-Method and image-based reaction field method for long-range interactions ¿ High-order singular/hypersingular (Nyström collocation/Galerkin) boundary and volume integral methods in layered media for Poisson-Boltzmann electrostatics, electromagnetic wave scattering and electron density waves in quantum dots ¿ Absorbing and UPML boundary conditions ¿ High-order hierarchical Nédélec edge elements ¿ High-order discontinuous Galerkin (DG) and Yee finite difference time-domain methods ¿ Finite element and plane wave frequency-domain methods for periodic structures ¿ Generalized DG beam propagation method for optical waveguides ¿ NEGF(Non-equilibrium Green's function) and Wigner kinetic methods for quantum transport ¿ High-order WENO and Godunov and central schemes for hydrodynamic transport ¿ Vlasov-Fokker-Planck and PIC and constrained MHD transport in plasmas
