Numerical Solution of Electromagnetic Scattering by Multiple CylindersAbstract
A numerical solution based on integral equation is derived for an electromagnetic scattering from M multiple parallel cylinders. The problem is twodimensional and the integral equation is solved using the Nystr¨om method. To validate the algorithm, we compare our numerical results with the semi-analytical ones obtained from multipole expansion method.
