Advances in Computational Electrodynamics: The Finite Difference Time Domain Method

Updates the 1995 text on the same topic. The 12 contributions cover high-order methods, multiresolution expansion, explicit time-domain solutions of Maxwell's equations via generalized grids, analysis of periodic structures, modeling of antennas, high- speed electronic circuits with active and nonlinear components, physics-based modeling of millimeter-wave devices, and microcavity resonators. The book is intended as a single-source reference on the state of FDTD art for university graduate students and faculty and professional engineers and scientists involved in electromagnetic technology. Appends a list of acronym expansions. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
