Domain decomposition for integral equation formulations for the analysis of complex open/closed structures

This paper presents a new domain decomposition scheme for the analysis of structures in the Method of Moments context. The method is flexible in the sense that it allows the decomposition of complex structures according to the user needs, admitting tearing apart the structure into closed, open or closed-open portions (e.g. subdomains) without any limitation. Moreover, the use of Discontinuous Galerkin to enforce transmission conditions among the subdomains, permits both conformal/Non-conformal discretizations, decreasing in great manner the mesher burden, as for each subdomain can be discretized independently.
