Abstract
The hybrid boundary element-finite element method has been used with great success in problems of electrostatics, magnetostatics, and eddy currents.1,2 The present paper extends the method to problems which have nonhomogeneous exterior regions. The paper deals with the specific case in which the region of interest is represented by finite elements and the boundary of the problem by an integral equation. The exterior of the problem is composed of two materials: one in which the finite-element region is embedded and another material region which is an infinite half-space. These regions must be linear although they may contain sources. Examples are given and the results are compared to known solutions where possible.
