Abstract :
The aim of the proposed method is the projection of an electromagnetic field belonging to a given function space (continuous or not) onto a discrete one spanned by finite element basis functions. This technique is useful for imposing inhomogeneous boundary conditions or volumic source fields, for calculating a dual field given the primal one or for mesh to mesh interpolation
