Analysis of Quadruple Corner-Cut Ridged Elliptical Waveguide by NURBS Enhanced Scaled Boundary Finite Element Method

The scaled boundary finite element method(SBFEM) is a semi-analysis method, combing the advantages of boundary element method and finite element method. However, in solving the quadruple corner-cut ridged elliptical(QCRE) waveguide, the traditional SBFEM employ the Lagrange polynomials as the basis functions which leads to the curved boundaries cannot be exactly represented and the continuity order across element is low. In this paper, a...
