Abstract-We present a simple analytical implementation of the static singular integrals arising in the volume/surface integral equation formulation for the analysis of mixed conducting and dielectric structures such as printed circuits with finite-size dielectric objects. The singularity of the Green's functions is extracted from the kernel of the integral equation as a static term. This term is then evaluated analytically for coincident rectangular cells in two and three dimensions. The new technique allows an accurate and efficient evaluation of method of moments (MoM) self-interactions compared to other methods previously used in the literature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
