  • Abstract
    The non-orthogonal FDTD algorithm is well-suited to the modelling of curved structures, although users of the technique frequently have difficulty determining an appropriate time step for the algorithm. A new method which is shown to be both a practical and reliable technique for determining the time step is presented
