Abstract :
The paper presents an overview of the most popular time domain methods for three-dimensional electromagnetic simulation. Their main characteristics, advantages and drawbacks, as well as alternative formulations are shortly presented. The paper concludes by the presentation of challenging application examples, for which the time-domain methods are not only well suited, but perhaps even the only successfully applicable approach.
