MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS AND TIME-DOMAIN FINITE ELEMENT SIMULATION OF CARPET CLOAK

In this paper, a mathematical analysis of the popular carpet cloak model is carried out. The well-posedness of the model is first proved, and then a finite element time-domain method is developed for solving this model. Three carpet cloak simulations are demonstrated to show the effectiveness of our model and the developed algorithm. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first mathematical analysis carried out for the carpet cloak model. The numerical simulation using edge elements for the carpet cloak model is also original.
