Finite element method–discrete element method bridging coupling for the modeling of gouge

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Antonio Joaquin Garcia Suarez, Manon Eugénie Voisin--Leprince

We discuss the multiscale modeling of a granular material trapped between continuum elastic domains. The amorphous granular region, usually termed “gouge,” is under high confinement pressure, to represent the loading of faults at depth. We model the granul ...

Limitations of the Metasurface Diluted-Slab Model

Karim Achouri, Christophe Caloz

In this article, we investigate the possibility to model a metasurface, defined as a zero-thickness sheet of surface polarization currents and described by generalized sheet transition conditions (GSTCs), by a thin slab with a subwavelength thickness and u ...

A Computational Comparison Between Isogeometric Analysis and Spectral Element Methods: Accuracy and Spectral Properties

Alfio Quarteroni, Ondine Gabrielle Chanon

In this paper, we carry out a systematic comparison between the theoretical properties of Spectral Element Methods and NURBS-based Isogeometric Analysis in its basic form, that is in the framework of the Galerkin method, for the approximation of the Poisso ...

High-fidelity optical diffraction tomography of multiple scattering samples

Demetri Psaltis, Joowon Lim

We propose an iterative reconstruction scheme for optical diffraction tomography that exploits the split-step nonparaxial (SSNP) method as the forward model in a learning tomography scheme. Compared with the beam propagation method (BPM) previously used in ...

Studying the different coupling regimes for a plasmonic particle in a plasmonic trap

Olivier Martin, Jeonghyeon Kim

Plasmonic antennas improve the stiffness and resolution of optical tweezers by producing a strong near-field. When the antenna traps metallic objects, the optically-resonant object affects the near-field trap, and this interaction should be examined to est ...

SIMPLE code: Optical properties with optimal basis functions

Nicola Marzari, Paolo Umari, Gianluca Prandini

We present SIMPLE, a code developed to calculate optical properties of metallic and insulating extended systems using the optimal basis method originally proposed by E.L. Shirley in 1996. Two different approaches for the evaluation of the complex dielectri ...

High-resolution interference microscopy with spectral resolution for the characterization of individual particles and self-assembled meta-atoms

Toralf Scharf, Michail Symeonidis

We apply a high-resolution interference microscope with spectral resolution to investigate the scattering response of isolated meta-atoms in real space. The final meta-atoms consist of core-shell clusters that are fabricated using a bottom-up approach. The ...
