Abstract

A subcell model for arbitrarily located thin wires in the finite‐element time‐domain (FETD) method using modified telegraphers equations has been developed by Edelvik et al. Recently a dual set of equations has been proposed for modelling of thin slots. In this paper, we show that using a similar algorithm as for thin wires we can take thin slots of arbitrary location into account. Previous thin slot models have been susceptible for instabilities. We prove that a symmetric coupling between field and slot yields a stable time‐continuous field–slot system and that the fully discrete field–slot system is unconditionally stable. The proposed method is demonstrated for scattering from straight and circular slots in an infinite conducting wall and for calculating the power delivered to a shielding enclosure including a slot. The results are in good agreement with published experimental data. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The modeling of magnetically lossy media in the finiteelement time-domain (FETD) method is substantially different from the simple treatment in the frequency-domain finite-element method. Two FETD formulations are presented and their numerical implementations are discussed. One is applicable to the

## Abstract A new coaxial waveguide‐port algorithm is developed and tested for the time‐domain finite‐element method. The electric field is modeled by edge elements and, for part of a coaxial cable or a similar transmission line, the full Maxwell's equations are reduced to the one‐dimensional trans
