Numerical Methods in Computational Electrodynamics

treated in more detail. They are just specimen of larger classes of schemes. Es­ sentially, we have to distinguish between semi-analytical methods, discretiza­ tion methods, and lumped circuit models. The semi-analytical methods and the discretization methods start directly from Maxwell's equations. Semi-analytical methods are concentrated on the analytical level: They use a computer only to evaluate expressions and to solve resulting linear algebraic problems. The best known semi-analytical met
