An upwinding embedded boundary method for Maxwell’s equations in media with material interfaces: 2D case. (English) Zbl 1031.78005
The authors have introduced an upwinding embedded boundary method to solve time dependent Maxwell’s equations in media with material interfaces. A global second-order finite difference method is obtained by combining central difference schemes away from the interfaces and upwinding technique with jump conditions near the interfaces. Numerical tests to demonstrate the simplicity, global second-order accuracy and stability of the proposed method are presented.
