Abstract
Global and local multitrace formulations (MTFs) provide a flexible and efficient method for the modeling of scattering and transmission of time harmonic electromagnetic (EM) waves by composite structures. This contribution extends the domain of applicability of global MTFs to cases where penetrable domains, perfectly conducting domain, and perfectly conducting thin sheets are all part of the design. A novel and easy to implement resonance-free equation to model scattering by perfect conductors is introduced. A Calderón preconditioner designed to limit the number of iterations required for the solution of the discrete system is designed and studied. The accuracy, flexibility, and efficiency of the method are demonstrated on a representative range of examples.
