Abstract :
A low-frequency electromagnetic field formulation is described using total and reduced magnetic vector potentials interpolated by edge elements and electrical scalar potentials interpolated by nodal elements. The formulation has been implemented in the frequency domain and is shown to be versatile, robust, and efficient.
