Abstract

We describe the use of exponential expansion for the evaluation of both the potential field and its gradient in three dimensions. The gradient can be obtained, with a small overhead, as a by-product of the computational process of the potential. All of the features of the exponential-expansion-based method are preserved. Here, the memory requirement is independent of the desired degree of accuracy and different forms of parallelisms are available for remotely-distributed networks and closely-coupled parallel systems
