Numerical modeling of three dimensional scattering in conductive media

Abstract

The authors present an approach to the numerical modeling of three-dimensional scattering in conductive media. The particular class of problems of interest is that for which the conduction current is large enough that the displacement current may be neglected. The scattering objects of interest are those which are on the order of a skin depth in size. The approach is based on the unimoment method extended to scattering from arbitrary three-dimensional objects and conductive media. A flow diagram of the computational tasks which must be performed in order to generate a solution is presented.<>
