Chair of Electromagnetic Theory
The research activities within Prof. Markus Clemens group are centered on the development and application of numerical simulation methods for Computational Electromagnetics and Computational Multiphysics. Related research projects have a focus in numerical high performance computation schemes for complex models of electric power transport and power conversion systems as well as for high-frequency applications up to the terahertz range. This also includes numerical electromagnetic compatibility testing methods and realistic simulations of electromagnetic field exposure scenarios of biological organisms e.g. by THz biosensors.
Recent research projects in the THz regime involve the development and application of numerical simulation methods for the analysis of electrically large systems (i.e., were the device length is very much larger minimum wave length) as e.g. THz sensor arrays. This includes techniques such as ultra large scale FDTD field simulations (up to 16 billion grid cells, using the BUW multi-GPU/CPU high-performance compute-server), advanced domain decomposition methods and novel surrogate models based e.g. on conventional model order reduction techniques as well as deep neuronal networks.
