Abstract

A new approach for solving TCAD problems in a multidimensional and multitopological way based on a generic scientific simulation environment is presented. By embedding functional programming, the environment imposes no restrictions on geometry, topology, or discretization schemes. Therewith equations and even complete models can be implemented easily. The generic and functional programming paradigms and the applicability in the area of TCAD are presented
