An improved implementation of the magnetic-field integral equation (MFIE) is presented in order to eliminate some of the restrictions on the testing integral due to the singularities. Galerkin solution of the MFIE by the method of moments employing piecewise linear Rao-Wilton-Glisson basis and testing functions on planar triangulations of arbitrary surfaces is considered. In addition to demonstrating the ability to sample the testing integrals on the singular edges, a key integral is rederived not only to obtain accurate results, but to manifest the implicit solid-angle dependence of the MFIE as well.

Improving the accuracy of the magnetic field integral equation with the linear-linear basis functions Ergül, Özgür Salih (American Geophysical Union (AGU), 2006-07-18) [ 1] Basis functions with linear variations are investigated in terms of the accuracy of the magnetic field integral equation (MFIE) and the combined-field integral equation (CFIE), on the basis of recent reports indicating the inaccuracy of the MFIE. Electromagnetic scattering problems involving conducting targets with arbitrary geometries, closed surfaces, and planar triangulations are considered. Specifically, two functions with linear variations along the triangulation edges in both tangential and norma...
Implementation of the Equivalence Principle Algorithm for Potential Integral Equations Farshkaran, Ali; Ergül, Özgür Salih (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-05-01) A novel implementation of the equivalence principle algorithm (EPA) employing potential integral equations (PIEs) is presented. EPA is generalized to be compatible with PIEs that are used to formulate inner problems inside equivalence surfaces. Based on the stability of PIEs, the resulting EPA-PIE implementation is suitable for low-frequency problems involving dense discretizations with respect to wavelength. Along with the formulation and a clear demonstration of the EPA-PIE mechanism, high accuracy, stabi...
Fast and accurate solutions of extremely large integral-equation problems discretised with tens of millions of unknowns Gurel, L.; Ergül, Özgür Salih (Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), 2007-04-26) The solution of extremely large scattering problems that are formulated by integral equations and discretised with tens of millions of unknowns is reported. Accurate and efficient solutions are performed by employing a parallel implementation of the multilevel fast multipole algorithm. The effectiveness of the implementation is demonstrated on a sphere problem containing more than 33 million unknowns, which is the largest integral-equation problem ever solved to our knowledge.
An efficient solution of the generalized eigenvalue problems for planar transmission lines Prakash, VVS; Kuzuoğlu, Mustafa; Mittra, R (Wiley, 2001-11-05) This paper presents an efficient solution for solving the generalized eigenvalue equation arising in the finite-element (FE) formulation of propagation characterization of planar transmission-line structures. A two-dimensional (2-D) finite-element method (FEM) is used for analyzing the uniform planar transmission lines. The Arnoldi algorithm is used in conjunction with the multifrontal decomposition of the system matrix for solving the eigensystem. Convergence is typically obtained within a few iterations o...
Numerical Constructions of Testing Functions for Improving the Accuracy of MFIE and CFIE in Multi-Frequency Applications Karaosmanoglu, Bariscan; Altinoklu, Askin; Ergül, Özgür Salih (EMW Publishing, 2016-01-01) We present a new approach based on numerical constructions of testing functions for improving the accuracy of the magnetic-field integral equation (MFIE) and the combined-field integral equation (CFIE) with low-order discretizations. Considering numerical solutions, testing functions are designed by enforcing the compatibility of the MFIE systems with the accurate coefficients obtained by solving the electric-field integral equation (EFIE). We demonstrate the accuracy improvements on scattering problems, wh...
