Abstract

A new hybrid computational procedure utilizing the Element-free Galerkin method (EFGM) and the finite element method (FEM) for electromagnetic field computations is proposed. With the proposed method, only a part of the analyzed domain is modeled using the EFGM, while the rest of the analysis domain is discretized using the ordinary FEM. The connection between both subdomains is enabled using an intermediate analysis subdomain where new hybrid shape functions are defined utilizing both EFGM and FEM shape functions as bases. The accuracy of the obtained results by the proposed method is of the same order with those obtained by the ordinary FEM, but with less computation effort.
