Classically, the domain decomposition methods (DDMs) for time-harmonic electromagnetic
wave propagation problems make use of the standard, low-order, Nédélec basis functions …

In this paper, a periodic chain composed of two-dimensional dielectric cylindrical inclusions
was studied based on the Fourier series expansion method with perfectly matched layers …

In this paper, a periodic chain composed of a two-dimensional single-layer dielectric
cylinder is studied by the Fourier series expansion method combined with the perfectly …

In this paper, the propagation of light along a long chain of two dimensional elliptic bars with
infinite period is analyzed. Due to the instability of the shape of the ellipse, the propagation …

There is a growing consensus that state of the art low-order finite element technology
requires, and will continue to require, too extensive computational resources to provide the …
