Code-Verification Techniques for Particle-in-Cell Simulations with Direct Simulation Monte Carlo Collisions
Brian A. Freno, William J. McDoniel, Christopher H. Moore +1
Particle-in-cell methods with stochastic collision models are commonly used to simulate collisional plasma dynamics, with applications ranging from hypersonic flight to semiconduct…
A Note on the Convergence of Symmetric Triangle Quadrature Rules
Brian A. Freno, Neil R. Matula, Joseph E. Bishop
Symmetric polynomial quadrature rules for triangles are commonly used to efficiently integrate two-dimensional domains in finite-element-type problems. While the development of suc…
Code-Verification Techniques for an Arbitrary-Depth Electromagnetic Slot Model
Brian A. Freno, Neil R. Matula, Robert A. Pfeiffer +1
Electromagnetic slot models are employed to efficiently simulate electromagnetic penetration through openings in an otherwise closed electromagnetic scatterer. Such models, which i…
Manufactured Solutions for an Electromagnetic Slot Model
Brian A. Freno, Neil R. Matula, Robert A. Pfeiffer +2
The accurate modeling of electromagnetic penetration is an important topic in computational electromagnetics. Electromagnetic penetration occurs through intentional or inadvertent…
