We describe the concept of the singularity in the integral equation of electromagnetic (EM) modeling in comparison with that in the integral representation of electric fields in EM theory, which would clarify the singular integral problems of the Green's tensor. We have also derived and classified the singular integrals of the Green's tensors in 3-D, 2.5-D and 2-D as well as in the thin sheet integral equations of the EM scattering problem, which have the most important effect on the accuracy of the numerical solution of the problems.

A practical design method for supersonic wings has been developed. The method is based on Takanashi's method that uses integral equations and iterative "residual-correction" concept. The geometry correction is calculated by solving linearized small perturbation equation (LSP) with the difference between garget and objective surface pressure distributions as a boundary condition. In the present method, LSP equation is analytically transformed to integral equations by using the Green's theorem. Design results of an isolated wing and wing-nacelle configurations are presented here.

The Green integral equation for the calculation of the forward-speed time-harmonic radiation-diffraction potentials IS derived. The forward-speed Green function presented by Brard is used and the correct free surface boundary condition for the Green function is imposed. The cause of the mistakes in the existing Green integral equation is also pointed out.

The integral equation method is a powerful tool for electromagnetic numerical modeling. But the difficulty of this technique is the size of their linear equations, which demands excessive memory and calculation time to invert. This limitation of the integral equation method becomes critical in inverse problem. To overcome this limitation, a lot of approximation and series methods, such as conventional Born, modifed Born and extended Born, were developed. But all the methods need volume integration of Green tensor, which is very time consuming. In electromagnetic theory, Green tensor rapidly decreases as the distance between source and field cell increases. Therefore, the source cell which are far away from the field cell does not make an effect on the electric field of the field cell. Consequently, by ignoring the effect of Green tensor due to far away source cells, computing time for electromagnetic numerical modeling can be reduced dramatically. Comparisons of this new method against a full integral equation, extended Born approximation and series code show that the method is accurate enough much less time consuming.

We present a new approximate formulation of the integral equation (IE) method for models with variable background conductivity. This method overcomes the standard limitation of the conventional If method related to the use of a horizontally layered background only. The new approximate IE method still employs the Green's functions for a horizontally layered 1-D model. However, the new method allows us to use an inhomogeneous background with the IE method. The method was carefully tested for modeling the EM field for complex structures with a known variable background conductivity. It can find wide application in modeling EM data for multiple geological models with some common geoelectrical features, like a known inhomogeneous overburden, or salt dome structures.

We will put the emphasis on the analysis of arbitrarily shaped microstrip antennas. The most general and rigorous treatment of microstrip antennas is given by the electric field integral equation(EFIE), usally formulated in the spectral domain. In this paper, we use a modification of EFIE, called the mixed potential integral equation(MPIE) , and we solve it in the space domain. This technique uses Green's functions associated with the scalar and vector potential which are calculated by using stratified media theory and are expressed as Sommerfeld integrals. The integral equation is solved by a moment's method using rooftop subsectional basis function. Thus, microstrip patches of any shape can be analysed at any frequency and for any substrate. Numerical results for a rectangular patch and for a L-shaped patch are given and compared with measured values.

In this paper, by applying the spectral domain wavelet concept to Green function, a fast spectral domain calculation of scattered fields is proposed to get the solution for the radiation integral. The spectral domain wavelet transform to represent Green function is implemented equivalently in space via the constant-Q windowing technique. The radiation integral can be calculated efficiently in the spectral domain using the windowed Green function expanded by its eigen functions around the observation region. Finally, the same formulation as that of the conventional fast multipole method (FMM) is obtained through the windowed Green function and the spectral domain calculation of the radiation integral.

본 논문에서는 방사 적분방정식의 해를 구하기 위하여 파수영역 웨이블릿 변환개념에 기반을 둔 윈도우 그린함수를 사용하여 파수영역에서 고속으로 산란필드를 계산하는 방법을 제안하였다. 그린함수에 적용된 파수영역 웨이블릿 변환은 공간영역에서 동일한 Q를 갖는 윈도우를 사용하여 필터링함으로써 등가적으로 구현하였다. 고유함수를 이용하여 관찰점을 중심으로 전개된 그린함수를 푸리에 변환한 후 파수영역에서 방사 적분을 계산함으로써 계산효율을 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다. 관찰영역에서만 정확한 값을 갖는 고유함수로 전개된 그린함수는 그린함수에 윈도우 함수를 씌운 형태로 방사 적분방정식의 파수영역 표현에 적용하면 기존의 고속멀티폴법과 동일한 산란필드 공식을 얻을 수 있다.

Wave energy absorption by a flap equipped with a harbor in a water of finite depth is studied. The wave potential is calculated by a hybrid integral equation consisting of Green integral equations associated with Rankine and Kelvin Green functions. The absorbed wave energy is calculated by both the near-field and far-field methods. The present methods can be used for the design of a flap-harbor wave energy absorber since the numerical results by the two methods are in good agreement.

This paper presents an efficient three-dimensional (3-D) modeling algorithm using the extended approximation to an electric field integral equation. Numerical evaluations of Green's tensor integral are performed in the spatial wavenumber domain. This approach makes it possible to reduce computing time, to handle smoothly varying conductivity model and to remove singularity problems encountered in the integration of Green's tensor at a source point. The responses obtained by 3-D modeling algorithm developed in this study are compared with those by the full integral equation for a thin-sheet EM scattering. The extensive analyses on the performance of modeling algorithm are made with the conductivity contrasts and source frequencies. These results show that the modeling algorithm are accurate up to the conductivity contrast of 1:16 and the frequency range of 100 Hz-100 kHz. The extended Born approximation, however, may produce inaccurate results for some source and model configurations in which the electric field is discontinuous across the conductivity boundary. We performed the modeling of a composite model of which conductivity varies continuously and this shows the modeling algorithm developed in this study is efficient for 3-D EM modeling. For a cross-hole source-receiver configuration a composite model of which conductivity varies continuously can be successfully simulated using this algorithm.
