โฆ Synopsis
A comparative study of two alternative networks for TLM modelling of diffusion processes has been undertaken. Some of their inherent advantages and disadvantages are analysed according to the ratio between the impedance of the lossless transmission lines and the lumped resistance. Their relative accuracy and utility in controlling the timestep automatically are examined.

A new hybrid TLM-FDTD algorithm for solving di!usion problems is described. The method utilizes the transmission line model to de"ne the time step and the FDTD's leap-frog algorithm to determine the voltages and currents of the network analogue of the di!usion equation. Unlike the standard TLM metho
There is a class of material processing simulators which require solution of the diffusion equation over a surface which is evolving due to some physical or chemical process related to the concentration of the diffusing species. Because of its explicit and unconditionally stable nature, the transmis
## Abstract The transmission line matrix (TLM) method is an established technique for modelling thermal transients in heat transfer systems. However, initial and boundary conditions have always been slightly problematic, particularly when the boundary condition is specified as a temperature (__Tran
This paper describes an application of transmission-line modelling (TLM) for the solution of heat diffusion in a three-dimensional metallic structure, surrounded by a dielectric material. The example of heat propagation along an electric fuse embedded in granular silica is presented. Heat is generat
We show that the general boundary condition DaWax + a@ = 0 (D is the diffusion coefficient and a is a ## constant) in TLM diffusion modelling can be expressed accurately in terms of a voltage reflection coefficient p = ( A x -a A t ) / ( A x + aAt), where Ax is the spatial resolution and At is the
