Abstract

Modern military platforms are crucially dependent on electromagnetic (EM) systems. The electromagnetic interactions generalized (EIGER) code is a computational electromagnetic code capable of EM design evaluation of military platforms. The numerical modeling process and canonical validation are presented. Some modeling results of complex military platforms are presented. These military platforms include a predator UAV, HMMWV, Abrams tank, Arleigh Burke destroyer, and a resistive frequency selective surface.
