Abstract

This paper deals with the electromagnetic modeling of oversized and complex electrical structures by means of large scale parallel systems, such as the Grid Computing (GC). As numerical tools, a hybrid Transmission-Line Matrix (TLM) modeling method and modal approach is applied. The non-homogeneous volumes are discretized upon TLM, while the planar structures are modelled with the mode matching approach. The results prove the benefits of the combined GC and hybrid approach to solve electrically large structures.
