The project has been articulated in five individual research projects, corresponding to the PhD topics of five fellows:
Individual project of Johann Bourhis (ESR1): new paradigms in moderate, low, and extremely low-frequency modelling for EMC and EMI industrial applications.
Activities performed within this project: After a bibliographic analysis and a substantial phase of preliminary implementation and theoretical investigations, the fellow has obtained two new formulations extending the use of the quasi-Helmholtz projectors to the industrially relevant cases of structures containing junctions and to high order problems.
Publications: Two journal papers and four conference papers published. Other two journal papers are in preparation.
Awards: the research of this individual project has received an honorable mention award at to IEEE AP-S/URSI Denver 2022.
Individual project of Pierrick Cordel (ESR2): new paradigms in moderate, high, and extremely high-frequency modelling for large scale scattering and industrial design
Activities performed within this project: After a preliminary set up, the fellow investigated and obtained three new solvers in time domain of electric type and of combined type allowing wideband simulations including signals with substantial high frequency components.
Publications: two journal papers and five conference papers. Other three journal papers are in preparations.
Awards: The research of this individual project has received an honorable mention award at to IEEE AP-S/URSI Portland 2023 and another paper was selected as one of the 10 finalists at IEEE AP-S/URSI 2022.
Individual project of Margaux Bruliard (ESR3): new paradigms in modeling of impedance and metasurfaces for radiation and scattering for next-generation industrial application.
Activities performed within this project: after a background building phase, the fellow investigated several IBC important scenarios, obtaining a new stabilization techniques for the IBC EFIE.
Publications: one journal paper and two conference papers has been published.
Individual project of Leonardo Pollini (ESR4): new paradigms in uncertainty quantification, sensitivity analysis, and tolerance assessment, modelling, specification, and implementation
Activities performed within this project: the project started with a propaedeutic study of the state of the art, then the project focused on the investigation of the behavior of random-based global optimization strategies obtaining results that are absolutely comparable to the human knowledge-based solution but in a completely automatable way.
Publications: the results obtained have been published in 4 conference papers and submitted to one journal paper.
Individual project of Paolo Ricci (ESR5): new paradigms in computationally empowered machine learning for industrial EM design and assessments.
Activities performed within this project: this project obtained a new single current formulation for imaging that leverages dual discretization schemes to avoid approximating the relationships linking electric and magnetic currents. The formulation was then extended to a resonance-free one and the activities also included the investigations of the enhancing and application of this approach within a machine learning-based current imaging setting.
Publications: two journal papers and four conference papers.
Awards: The research of this individual project has received an honorable mention award at IEEE AP-S/URSI Denver 2022.
Disseminaton and Communication
As detailed above for each fellow, several journal and conference papers has been delivered by this project and are available in open access. There are currently 6 journal papers in preparation. Moreover, during this project, all fellows have been involved in communication activities: they participated to science fairs for high schools, university lab open door presentations, and they have been all actively involved in the European Night of Researchers.
