Cross Approximation Methods For Integral Equation Matrices With Complex Structure, Jordon N. Blackburn

Theses and Dissertations--Electrical and Computer Engineering

Electrical and computer engineers rely on electromagnetic field (EM) theory to formulate and design systems that utilize information or energy obtained from a signal. Over time these systems have been increased in scale and complexity and adapted to handle a wider array of problems. This has motivated substantial developments in computational sciences including the area of computational electromagnetics (CEM).The focus of CEM is the simulation of electromagnetic fields. At the University of Kentucky, the CEM group has developed several modeling tools that are based on the application of approximation theory to integral equations. This allows the physical problem to be …
