An implementation of a solver for scattering problems based on the programming language Matlab is introduced. The solver relies on the finite-element-method and on the perfectly-matched-layer-method, which allows for the simulation of scattering problems on complex geometries surrounded by inhomogeneous exterior domains. This report gives a number of detailed examples and can be understood as a user manual to the freely accessible code of the solver HelmPole.}, language = {en} } @misc{ZschiedrichKloseSchaedleetal., author = {Zschiedrich, Lin and Klose, Roland and Sch{\"a}dle, Achim and Schmidt, Frank}, title = {A new Finite Element realization of the Perfectly Matched Layer Method for Helmholtz scattering problems on polygonal domains in 2D}, doi = {10.1016/j.cam.2005.03.047}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-7662}, number = {03-44}, abstract = {In this paper we propose a new finite element realization of the Perfectly Matched Layer method (PML-method). Our approach allows to deal with arbitrary shaped polygonal domains and with certain types of inhomogeneous exterior domains. Among the covered inhomogeneities are open waveguide structures playing an essential role in integrated optics. We give a detailed insight to implementation aspects. Numerical examples show exponential convergence behavior to the exact solution with the thickness of the PML sponge layer.}, language = {en} }
