Abstract

We present a flexible finite element solver for testing optimized Schwarz domain decomposition techniques for the time-harmonic Maxwell equations. After a review of non-overlapping Schwarz domain decomposition methods and associated transmission conditions, we discuss the implementation, based on the open source software GetDP and Gmsh. The solver, along with ready-to-use examples, is available online for further testing.
