Abstract
This paper aims at presenting a unified nonuniform cylindrical finite-diffe
rence time-domain (NU-CFDTD) algorithm for the analysis of generalized cyli
ndrical electromagnetic problems, which requires no need for splitting a co
mputational volume into the FDTD and absorbing boundary regions. The algori
thm is designed to be easy for coding and flexible in treating various mate
rials without adding computational resources. The NU-CFDTD algorithm is val
idated via a number of applications for cylindrical structures. (C) 2000 Jo
