Abstract :
The advancement of hardware and software to computers makes possible a faster processing. With this technology, many researchers may develop numerical models about their study to test in computer, saving time and resources. About numerical simulation in time domain, has the Transmission-Line Matrix (TLM) method that uses an analogy of transmission lines to solve the differential equation of system in analysis through a relation between the differential equation problems and arrangement of nodes. There are many nodes scheme to model different physical parameters, such as electromagnetic, thermal, Pennes’ equation, particle diffusion, acoustic, elastic solids, Schr?dinger-Maxwell Equation, deformation, hydraulic systems, fluid mechanics, and so on. This work presents a basic theory about TLM to electromagnetic, thermal and coupled electromagnetic-thermal system. Furthermore we present the SimEMTher free software that solves these problems and shows a few applications of simulations in the industry and health.
