Finite-difference time-domain method
ID: finite-difference-time-domain-method
The Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method is a computational algorithm used to solve differential equations that describe how electromagnetic waves propagate through a medium. This technique is particularly effective for simulating wave phenomena in complex geometries and material structures. ### Key Features of FDTD: 1. **Time Domain Approach**: FDTD is a time-domain approach, meaning it computes the electromagnetic fields (electric and magnetic) as functions of both time and space.
