Abstract :
New analytical closed forms of the dispersion relation for TLM condensed nodes modelling general materials (stubbed symmetrical condensed node, symmetrical super-condensed node) are presented and validated by numerical results. The range of dispersion errors and bilateral behavior are fully explored and practical guidance is offered to users.<>
