Abstract :
A new numerical method is proposed to analyze transient induced effects in thin wires excited by external fields. Maxwell´s curl equations and transmission line equations are solved by the point-matching finite element-time domain (FE-TD) method. The method is based on a finite element discretization of space and a finite difference discretization of time. The leap-frog scheme is adopted and an explicit solution scheme is obtained
