Abstract :
A numerical approach to electromagnetic scattering by nonlinear dielectric objects is proposed. The approach is based on an integral-equation formulation developed for three-dimensional full-vector scattering. A numerical solution is achieved by discretizing the continuous model by the moment method and by using Wolfe´s (1959) procedure to solve the resulting nonlinear function. Preliminary numerical results are reported
