  • Abstract
    We examine the construction of a symmetric positive definite conductance matrix for eddy-current problems, using a discrete approach. We construct a new set of piecewise uniform basis vector functions on both the primal and the dual complex. We define these vector functions for both tetrahedra and prisms
