Hi everyone,
It's been quite a time since I have started searching the web for clear explanations on the Method of Moment (MoM) theory for electromagnetic field computing. Does anyone know a documentation, web page or anything which could help me?
Furthermore, I would like to compare this method with the MLFMM method. I know they are pretty close methods but I don't know how close they are and what differentiate them.
I am working on the CST software, but no comprehensive explanations are given regarding these solvers.
Thanks you very much for any help,
Antoine Cano
Dear Researcher Antoine Cano ,
Moment Methods is a method to solve Maxwell's equation. The multilevel fast multipole method (MLFMM) is used along with method of moments (MoM) a numerical computational method of solving linear partial differential equations which have been formulated as integral equations of large objects almost faster without loss in accuracy.
I suggest you read the book (Field Computation by Moment Methods ) and the text in attachment :
Field Computation by Moment Methods
Roger F. Harrington Book Abstract "An IEEE reprinting of this classic 1968 edition, FIELD COMPUTATION BY MOMENT METHODS is the first book to explore the computation of electromagnetic fields by the most popular method for the numerical solution to electromagnetic field problems. It presents a unified approach to moment methods by employing the concepts of linear spaces and functional analysis. Written especially for those who have a minimal amount of experience in electromagnetic theory, this book illustrates theoretical and mathematical concepts to prepare all readers with the skills they need to apply the method of moments to new, engineering-related problems.

Try typing MLFMM into google, like I did, then read the wikipedia entry.
I suggest you to refer to textbooks. Maybe you can search for:
- Gibson: The Method of Moments in Electromagnetics;
- Makarov: Antenna and EM modelling with Matlab;
- Harrington: Field Computation by Moment Method.
