چکیده

The alternating-direction implicit method proposed by McKee–Mitchell is applied to full-vectorial paraxial wave equations. The high computational efficiency of the present method is demonstrated in comparison with an iterative solver. Novel finite-difference formulas that take into account discontinuities of the fields are proposed and employed to ensure second-order accuracy. Calculations regarding the effective index of rib waveguides show that the present results remarkably agree with values obtained from the modal transverse resonance method.

Numerical Analysis of Mushroom-type Traveling Wave Electroabsorption Modulators Using Full-Vectorial Finite Difference Method

Larger width of P-cladding layer in p-i-n waveguide of traveling wave electroabsorption modulator (TWEAM) results in lower resistance and microwave propagation loss which provides an enhanced high speed electro-optical response. In this paper, a fullvectorial finite-difference-based optical mode solver is presented to analyze mushroom-type TWEAM for the first time. In this analysis, the discont...

Finite-Difference Beam Propagation Method Based on the Generalized Douglas Scheme for a Nonuniform G - IEEE Photonics Technology Letters

The finite-difference beam propagation method based on the Douglas scheme is extended to a nonuniform grid. The truncation error is reduced to ~ ( A z ) ~ , provided the grid growth factor is r = 1 + ~ ( A z ) , while maintaining a tridiagonal matrix. The numerical results show that the accuracy is improved as compared with that obtained from the conventional nonuniform Crank-Nicholson scheme. ...

Experimental and finite-element free vibration analysis and artificial neural network based on multi-crack diagnosis of non-uniform cross-section beam

Crack identification is a very important issue in mechanical systems, because it is a damage that if develops may cause catastrophic failure. In the first part of this research, modal analysis of a multi-cracked variable cross-section beam is done using finite element method. Then, the obtained results are validated usingthe results of experimental modal analysis tests. In the next part, a nove...

Dynamic Fracture Analysis Using an Uncoupled Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian Finite Element Formulation

This paper deals with the implementation of an efficient Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) formulation for the three dimensional finite element modeling of mode I self-similar dynamic fracture process. Contrary to the remeshing technique, the presented algorithm can continuously advance the crack with the one mesh topology. The uncoupled approach is employed to treat the equations. So, each t...

A full vectorial generalized discontinuous Galerkin beam propagation method (GDG-BPM) for nonsmooth electromagnetic fields in waveguides

In this paper, we propose a new full vectorial generalized discontinuous Galerkin beam propagation method (GDG– BPM) to accurately handle the discontinuities in electromagnetic fields associated with wave propagations in inhomogeneous optical waveguides. The numerical method is a combination of the traditional beam propagation method (BPM) with a newly developed generalized discontinuous Galerk...
