Abstract

Problems with very slow waveforms or very long diffusion times may be difficult to treat using finite-difference time-domain techniques because of the Courant stability condition. Problems of this class, however, often prove to have a response which does not depend on the speed of light. The examples presented here show cases where internal fields do not change if c is reduced by as much as five orders of magnitude. This permits /spl Delta/t to be proportionally increased. For simplicity much of this paper is restricted to one dimension, although generalization to three dimensions is also presented. The author considers an aluminum enclosure. Initially, the transient field will induce eddy currents on the enclosure which exactly cancel the external field and exclude it from the enclosure interior. This scheme has been, in fact, proposed to shield large systems which contain magnetic memories. >
