This paper deals with an advanced electromagnetic radiation approach for analyzing the time-domain performance of grounding systems under pulse excitation currents. The model of the grounding systems presented within this paper is based on the homogeneous Pocklington integro-differential equation for the calculation of the current distribution on the grounding system and Lorentz gauge condition which is used for the grounding system transient voltage calculation. For the solution of the Pocklington integro-differential equation, the indirect boundary element method and marching on-in time method are used. Fur- thermore, the solution technique for the calculation of the grounding system transient voltage is presented. The numerical model for the calculation of the grounding system transients was verified by comparing it with onsite measurement results.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to derive a unified formulation for incorporating different dispersive models into the explicit and implicit finite difference time domain (FDTD) simulations. Design/methodology/approach In this paper, dispersive integro-differential equation (IDE) FDTD formulation is presented. The resultant IDE is written in the discrete time domain by applying the trapezoidal recursive convolution and central finite differences schemes. In addition, unconditionally stable implicit split-step (SS) FDTD implementation is also discussed. Findings It is found that the time step stability limit of the explicit IDE-FDTD formulation maintains the conventional Courant–Friedrichs–Lewy (CFL) constraint but with additional stability limits related to the dispersive model parameters. In addition, the CFL stability limit can be removed by incorporating the implicit SS scheme into the IDE-FDTD formulation, but this is traded for degradation in the accuracy of the formulation. Research limitations/implications The stability of the explicit FDTD scheme is bounded not only by the CFL limit but also by additional condition related to the dispersive material parameters. In addition, it is observed that implicit JE-IDE FDTD implementation decreases as the time step exceeds the CFL limit. Practical implications Based on the presented formulation, a single dispersive FDTD code can be written for implementing different dispersive models such as Debye, Drude, Lorentz, critical point and the quadratic complex rational function. Originality/value The proposed formulation not only unifies the FDTD implementation of the frequently used dispersive models with the minimal storage requirements but also can be incorporated with the implicit SS scheme to remove the CFL time step stability constraint.

Differential equation is a powerful tool for investigating the transient and steady-state solutions of electrical circuit in the time domain. By considering the noise in actual circuit system, this paper first presents an uncertain circuit equation, which is a type of differential equation driven by Liu process. Then the solution of uncertain circuit equation and the inverse uncertainty distribution of solution are derived. Following that, two applications of solution are provided as well. Based on the observations, the method of moments is used to estimate the unknown parameters in uncertain circuit equation. In addition, a paradox for stochastic circuit equation is also given.

This paper, “Symmetric Arc Solutions of ζ¨ = ζn,” presents periodic solutions of this differential equation relating the complex variable ζ(t) = u(t) + iv(t) and its second time derivative ζ¨ The solutions are called symmetric arc solutions since they form such arcs on the ζ = u + iv-plane. The solutions, ζ(t), are “complex modes” of coupled nonlinear differential equations in the complex variables z1 and z2. Symmetric arc solutions are presented for a range of n from n = 3 to n = 101. Approximate solutions are presented and compared with solutions generated by digital computer. Solutions are presented on the ζ-plane and in the time domain as u(t) and v(t).

Abstract In the present paper, a full theoretical model for calculating the carrier mobility coming as a result of the existence of a truncated conical quantum dots of n-type quantum dot infrared photodetectors (QDIPs) is developed. This model is built on solving Boltzmann’s transport equation that is a complex integro-differential equation describing the carrier transport. The time-domain finite-difference method is used in this numerical solution. The influences of dimensions and density of the QDs for this structure on the carrier mobility are studied. Eventually, the calculated mobility for truncated conical InAs/GaAs QDIP is contrasted to other conical, spherical, and hemispherical QD structures. The model put forward is a generic model that is applicable to various structures of truncated conical QDs devices.
