The finite difference time domain method (FDTD) is widely applied to the analysis of various microwave circuits. However, previous source modeling techniques have a lot of constraints and difficulties to apply for general geometries. Therefore, the internal resistive source modeling technique is suggested for efficiently analyzing various types of microwave circuit in this paper. Its efficiency is proved by comparing the computation time with that of hard source modeling. Accuracy is also verified by comparing the scattering parameters with those of previous source modeling methods and measurements for several microwave circuits.

In this paper, the numerical wave propagation properties of the finite difference-time domain(FD-TD) method is investigated as a discrete model describing electromagnetic(EM) wave propagation phenomena. The leap-frog approximation of Maxwell's curl equations in time-space simulates EM wave propagation in terms of the numerical characteristic and the domain of dependence. A geometrical interpretation of the FD-TD numerical procedure is presented. The numerical dispersion error due to the leap-frog approximation and its dependence on the stability factor are illustrated. The FD-TD method using the leap-frog approximation is inherently a descriptive model. Thus, not only any physical picture about EM wave propagation phenomena can be drawn through this model, but also physical or engineering parameters in the frequency domain can be extracted from descriptive results. E-plane filter characteristics in the WR-28 rectangular waveguide and reflection property of an inductive iris in the WR-90 rectangluar waveguide extracted from simulation of the FD-TD model is included.

The design and analysis of the transversely fed EMC(electromagnetically coupled) microstrip dipole have been accomplished by using the integral equation and MOM(method of moment)in frequency domain in order to find the current distribution of the dipole. In this study, we proposed the possibilities for design and analysis of EMC micro-strip dipole array antenna by means of calculating the current distribution of each dipole directly using the FDTD(finite difference time domain) method. In this case, we applied the formulation which is the finite difference expression of the Maxwell's integral equation. From the current distribution of each dipole, we calculated the far field electric component and showed that the calculation process and running time was reduced with respect to the method which calculates the radiation field with surface electric and magnetic current density.

Conformal methods such as staircase approximation and effective medium theory have been used to model arbitrary dielectric surfaces in Cartesian FDTD(finite-difference time-domain) grids. However, the staircase approximation doesn't guarantee accurate results and the effective medium theory cannot be applied for frequency dispersive medium. In this paper, a simple conformal method is introduced for analyzing arbitrary dielectric surfaces. These arbitrarily shaped dielectric surfaces make nonuniformly filled FDTD cells. E(H)-field in a nonuniformly filled FDTD cell is calculated by considering the cell as the combination of two kinds of uniformly filled cells whose material boundaries are normal and parallel to the E(H)-field in the cell. TM scattering from a rotated 2-D dielectric and a ferrite square cylinder is analyzed to show the accuracy of the proposed method.

This paper presents the results of an electromagnetic field analysis for a reverberation chamber that is an alternative method of a shielded anechoic chamber, which is widely used for the analysis and measurement of electromagnetic interference and immunity test. Inside the defined test volume of the rectangular and triangular type, the Schroeder Quadratic Residue Diffuser was employed. FDTD(Finite-Difference Time-Domain) simulation method was applied to produce the field characteristics inside those reverberation chambers. According to the results, field uniformities on the aforementioned two types of reverberation chambers were correlated within $\pm$3dB, and $\pm$4.4dB tolerances, and rectangular type reverberation chamber shows an independent polarization result.

In this paper, we present and analyze a fully discrete numerical method for solving the time-fractional diffusion wave equation: ∂^β_tu - div(a∇u) = f, 1 < β < 2. We first construct a difference formula to approximate ∂^β_tu by using an interpolation of derivative type. The truncation error of this formula is of O(△t^2+δ-β)-order if function u(t) ∈ C^2,δ[0, T] where 0 ≤ δ ≤ 1 is the Hölder continuity index. This error order can come up to O(△t^3-β) if u(t) ∈ C³ [0, T]. Then, in combinination with the linear finite volume discretization on spatial domain, we give a fully discrete scheme for the fractional wave equation. We prove that the fully discrete scheme is unconditionally stable and the discrete solution admits the optimal error estimates in the H¹-norm and L₂-norm, respectively. Numerical examples are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed numerical method.

A numerical model is represented to calculate the reflected waves, the runup of waves and the wave induced velocities on impermeable slopes for the normally incident wave trains of nonlinear monochromatic wave and solitary wave. The finite amplitude shallow water equations with the effects of bottom friction are solved numerically in time domain using an explicit dissipative Lax-Wendroff finite difference method. The numerical model is verified by comparisons with the other numerical results, the measured data and asymptotic results. It is found that the uprushing and downrushing of incident waves may be accurately predicted by the present numerical model. Therefore, the present numerical model can be applicable to swells as well as long waves.

In the concurrent engineering, the CAD-based design model is necessary for multidisciplinary analysis and for computer-aided manufacturing (CAM). A shape and configuration design velocity field computation of structure has been developed using a computer-aided design (CAD) tool, Pro/ENGINEER. The design Parameterization with CAD tool is to characterize the change in dimensions and movements of geometric control points that govern the shape/orientation of the structural boundary. The boundary velocity is obtained by using a CAD-based finite difference method and the domain velocity field is obtained from finite element analysis (FEA) using the boundary displacement method. In this paper, the continuum configuration DSA for NVH problem, which requires the shape velocity field and the orientation velocity field at the same time, is developed using linear shape functions. For validation of continuum design sensitivity coefficients, design sensitivity coefficients are compared with the coefficients computed using by the finite difference method.

A theoretical analysis of the impact of rise time of a Q-switch on the output pulse performance is carried out in an Ytterbium-doped actively Q-switched fiber laser. The finite difference time domain (FDTD) method is used to numerically simulate the Q-switched fiber laser. It is shown that stable Gaussian-like pulse shape can be generated when the Q-switch rise time is increased and pulse repetition rate is enlarged.

In this paper, we present a new formulation using time-domain electric field integral equation (TD-EFIE) to obtain transient scattering response from arbitrarily shaped three-dimensional conducting bodies. The time derivative of the magnetic vector potential is approximated with a central finite difference and the scalar potential is time averaged by dividing it into two terms. This approach with an implicit method using central difference results in accurate and more stable transient scattering responses from conducting objects. Detailed mathematical steps are included and several numerical results are presented and compared with the inverse discrete Fourier transform (IDFT) of the frequency-domain solution.
