Abstract :
A distributed-memory parallel MLFMA has been designed to handle simulation of electromagnetic radiation and scattering in the presence of complex objects. The code has been validated against previously-validated software, analytic solutions and physical optics approximations. For more complex problems, where reference data is not available, the resulting solutions conform to expectations based on physical reasoning.
