Abstract :
Certain finite-element discretization methods used in time-domain electromagnetic modeling reduce to a type of finite-difference method when applied on a regular mesh. The form of this underlying finite-difference method is unusual; it consists of two decoupled grids, rotated 45° from the original finite element mesh
