Frequency dependent finite‐difference–time‐domain [(fd)²td] formulation applied to ferrite material

Abstract

When subjected to a constant magnetic field, ferrites exhibit anisotropic constitutive parameters. This anisotropy can be described in the frequency domain by using a permeability tensor [μ(ω)] instead of the usual scalar permeability. This article introduces a new method to analyze saturated ferrite structures by a FDTD algorithm where the convolution between the permeability tensor [μ(t)] = F−1 ([μ(ω)]) and the magnetic field H(t) = F−1 (H(ω)) are to be calculated. Results are obtained for a two‐dimensional problem and are compared with those given by direct differential FDTD algorithm [1] and a mode‐matching method [2]. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Setup for Simultaneous Microwave Heating and Real-Time Spectrofluorometric Measurements in Biological Systems

“…The algorithm was developed at XLIM Research Institute and has been validated by previous work [18,22,23]. The FDTD method was applied to solve the time-dependent Maxwell's equations in differential form, the latter governing the propagation of electromagnetic waves and their interaction with matter.…”

A versatile high voltage nano- and sub-nanosecond pulse generator

“…The static and transient behavior of the generator was simulated using a FDTD-based algorithm that was developed at XLIM research Institute [34][35][36][37]. The coaxial structure was modeled in 3D, and 3-port terminated in a perfectly matched layer [38] to simulate a load matched to the coaxial line impedance.…”

Modelling of Wave Propagation in Wire Media Using Spatially Dispersive Finite-Difference Time-Domain Method: Numerical Aspects

“…The first frequency dispersive FDTD formulation was developed by Luebbers et al for the modelling of Debye media [7] using a RC scheme by relating the electric flux density to the electric field through a convolution integral, and then discretising the integral as a running sum. The RC approach was also extended for the study of wave propagation in a Drude material [10], M-th order dispersive media [11], an anisotropic magneto-active plasma [12], ferrite material [13], and the bi-isotropic/chiral media [14]- [16]. The ADE method was first used by Kashiwa and coworkers [17], [18] in 1990 for modelling of Debye and Lorentz media.…”
