We propose equivalent transmission conditions of order 1 and 2 for thin and highly conducting sheets for the time-harmonic Maxwell's equation in three dimension. The transmission conditions are derived asymptotically for vanishing sheet thickness ε where the skin depth is kept proportional to ε. The condition of order 1 turns out to be the perfect electric conductor boundary condition. The conditions of order 2 appear as generalised Poincaré-Steklov maps between tangential components of the magnetic field and the electric field, and they are of Wentzell type involving second order surface differential operators. Numerical results with finite elements of higher order validate the asymptotic convergence for ε → 0 and the robustness of the equivalent transmission condition of order 2.
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.
