Content and learning outcomes

Course contents

Numerical methods for analyzing scattering of electromagnetic waves from objects with complicated shape

Intended learning outcomes

After completion of the course the student shall be able to

  • explain briefly the Fredholm theory for integral equations 
  • derive electromagnetic representation formulas, from generalized  Green formulas,   
  • derive line, surface, and volume integral equations   
  • discretize integral equations into matrix equations 
  • explain some methods for improved and accelerated convergence

Literature

You can find information about course literature either in the course memo for the course offering or in the course room in Canvas.

Examination and completion

Grading scale

P, F

Examination

  • EXA1 - Examination, 6.0 credits, grading scale: P, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

Four home‐assignments: 

  1. Electrostatic or magnetostatic problem 
  2. Thin‐wire antenna 
  3. Scattering from metallic or homogeneous object 
  4. Scattering from heterogeneous object

Other requirements for final grade

Satisfactory performance in all home‐assignments. Oral presentation of one assignment.

Examiner

Ethical approach

  • All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
  • In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
  • In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
