Application of Numerical Methods To Solve Integral Equations Arising in Computational Physics/Electromagnetics

Abstract

The author, as part of an internship under the Joint Educational Opportunities for Minorities (JEOM) Program at Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD), China Lake, California, has devised models and methods for the solution of certain frequently recurring problems in electrical engineering. Starting with fundamental equations relating to line charges, the author utilizes the well-known method of moments to model single strip charges, multiple strip charges in various geometrical configurations, and a charged square cylinder excited by an incidental plane wave. Finally, the author considers the problem of calculating the current along a thin-wire antenna.
