Abstract :
A hybrid method that combines two numerical techniques, the ADI formulation of the Finite Difference Time Domain (ADI-FDTD) and the Method of Moments in the Time Domain (MoMTD), is employed to simulate a short-pulse ground penetrating radar (GPR). The method is applied to the detection of cracks in a marble block.
