EXTENSION OF METHOD OF MOMENTS FOR ELECTRICALLY LARGE STRUCTURES BASED ON PARALLEL COMPUTATIONS

An integral equation formulation in conjunction with a novel parallel method of moments (PMoM) is proposed to analyze the response of electr ically large structures, consisting of conducting or dielectric parts, to a time harmonic excitation. The inherent parallelism of the introd uced technique allows for the results to be obtained with minimal addi tion to the sequential code programming effort. Two indicative electro magnetic compatibility applications are presented, while the applicabi lity/suitability of diverse high performance computing (HPC) platforms is judged, based on both performance obtained and ease of code portat ion.
