Abstract :
This article presents a method of analysis of microwave integrated planar circuits, and in particular for microstrips. A time domain finite element method has been implemented in a user friendly software called MIC2D. The program computes the values of the electric scalar potential and the conduction current, as functions of time on a single strip in 2D
