abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">A hybrid finite element-Laplace transform method is implemented to analyze the time domain electromagnetic scattering induced by a 2-D overfilled cavity
embedded in the infinite ground plane. The algorithm divides the whole scattering
domain into two, interior and exterior, sub-domains. In the interior sub-domain which
covers the cavity, the problem is solved via the finite element method. The problem is
solved analytically in the exterior sub-domain which slightly overlaps the interior subdomain and extends to the rest of the upper half plane. The use of the Laplace transform leads to an analytical link condition between the overlapping sub-domains. The
analytical link guides the selection of the overlapping zone and eliminates the need
to use the conventional Schwartz iteration. This dramatically improves the efficiency
for solving transient scattering problems. Numerical solutions are tested favorably
against analytical ones for a canonical geometry. The perfect link over the artificial
boundary between the finite element approximation in the interior and analytical solution in the exterior further indicates the reliability of the method. An error analysis
is also performed.</p>},
