1 Christensen, Douglas A.Computer-aided design of two-dimensional electric-type hyperthermia applicators using the finite-difference time-domain methodA hyperthermia applicator design tool consisting of a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) technique in combination with a graphical display of electric fields and normalized linear temperature rise is described. This technique calculates, rather than assumes, antenna current distributions; it incl...Finite-difference time-domain method; Hyperthermia applicator1991-09
2 Christensen, Douglas A.Extending the two-dimensional FDTD method to hybrid electromagnetic systems with active and passive lumped elementsThis paper extends the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method to include distributed electromagnetic systems with lumped elements (a hybrid system) and voltage and current sources. FDTD equations that include nonlinear elements like diodes and transistors are derived. Calculation of driving-p...Finite-difference time-domain method; Lumped elements1992-04
3 Christensen, Douglas A.FDTD modeling in the design of optical chemical sensor structuresThe finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD) is a numerical technique for solving Maxwell's equations in a discretized space and time frame. It has been used extensively in the analysis of electrically large structures in the microwave domain, but has only recently been applied to optical proble...Finite-difference time-domain method; Immunochemical fluorosensors; Planar waveguides1991
4 Christensen, Douglas A.Finite-difference time-domain modeling and experimental characterization of planar waveguide fluorescence sensorsThe finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD) is a powerful numerical technique for solving Maxwell's equations in a discretized space and time grid. Its applications have up to now been in the analysis of electrically large structures in the microwave domain, and the scope of investigations has b...Finite-difference time-domain method; Planar waveguide1992
5 Christensen, Douglas A.General formulation for connecting sources and passive lumped-circuit elements across multiple 3-D FDTD cellsA previous extension of the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method to include lumped-circuit elements is further extended to model lumped-element circuits connected across multiple FDTD cells. This formulation is needed to model many kinds of circuits, like those with a transistor or other ac...Finite-difference time-domain method; Lumped-element circuit; Dielectric; Microstrip1996-02
6 Christensen, Douglas A.Modeling sources in the FDTD formulation and their use in quantifying source and boundary condition errorsThe modeling of voltage and current sources as either added or replaced sources in FDTD simulations is described and their differences discussed in terms of a transmission line analogy. An infinitesimal current element (ICE) is used to illustrate the validation of added source modeling and to study...Finite-difference time-domain method; Infinitesimal current element1995-04
7 Christensen, Douglas A.; Furse, Cynthia M.Problem and treatment of DC offsets in FDTD simulationsThis paper discusses the causes of and some solutions to the commonly observed problem of dc field offsets in finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulations. DC electric and magnetic field offsets are shown to be valid calculated responses of the modeled systems, resulting from interaction betwee...Finite-difference time-domain method; Direct current offsets; Waveforms2000-08
