Abstract :
In this paper, an optimization procedure is proposed to design the maximum loss for composite material at multiple frequencies using multiphase spherical particles. This approach is based on a genetic algorithm together with the Maxwell-Garnett formulas. Once initial designs are completed, more accurate finite-difference method will be used to evaluate the designs. This approach can also be used to design composite materials having approximately constant maximum loss in a frequency band.
