I. Bardi et al., ON THE TREATMENT OF SHARP CORNERS IN THE FEM ANALYSIS OF HIGH-FREQUENCY PROBLEMS, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 30(5), 1994, pp. 3108-3111
A treatment of sharp metal corners is presented by a nodal finite elem
ent method in which the usual nodal shape functions are combined with
edge shape functions in the vicinity of the sharp corner or on the who
le boundary. The magnetic vector potential together with the electric
scalar potential is used and the spurious modes are suppressed by enfo
rcing the source-free condition implicitly. Examples are presented to
test and illustrate the method.
