Time-Harmonic Maxwell Equations in Biological Cells — The Differential Form Formalism to Treat the Thin Layer

Abstract: We study the behavior of the electromagnetic field in a biological cell modelled by a medium surrounded by a thin layer and embedded in an ambient medium. We derive approximate transmission conditions in order to replace the membrane by these conditions on the boundary of the interior domain. Our approach is essentially geometric and based on a suitable change of variables in the thin layer. Few notions of differential calculus are given in order to obtain the first order conditions in a simple way, and numeri… Show more

“…Then, complex phenomenon known as electropermeabilization (or electroporation) may occur [21]: the cell membrane In order to avoid the meshing of the thin membrane, it is convenient to approximate the solution to problem (1), by replacing the thin layer by appropriate conditions across the surface Γ. The idea, as presented in [7], consists in rewriting the operator curl curl in the domain O ε m in local coordinates (x T , x 3 ) [1,7]. The variable x 3 ∈ (0, ε) is the Euclidean distance to Γ and x T denotes tangential coordinates on Γ.…”
