Abstract :
FEM/DBCI (Dirichlet Boundary Condition Iteration) is a hybrid method which has been successfully applied to the finite element solution of static and quasistatic unbounded field problems. It is based on the iterative improvement of a Dirichlet condition on a fictitious boundary enclosing all the conductors, making use of the free-space Green´s function. In this paper it is shown that for two-dimensional skin effect problems a more robust solving strategy can be pursued by means of GMRES, obtaining a reduction in both CPU and storage requirements
