Enhanced Technique for Metascreens Using the Generalized Finite Element Method
Abstract
An efficient approach to simulate the multiple scales, occurring in metascreens, is introduced. Due to the fine discretization around apertures, the standard finite element (FE) method leads to a large number of unknowns. Therefore, the generalized FE method is applied with multiscale functions, which are supported locally at the apertures. The idea is to develop a technique that is able to cope with varying thicknesses of the metascreen and arbitrary shapes of apertures as well as lossy materials and frequencies in a wide range. The proposed method improves the accuracy in simulations for metascreens in 2-D.
