HOBBIES (electromagnetic solver)

HOBBIES is a general purpose electromagnetic solver for various applications. The name is an acronym for Higher Order Basis Based Integral Equation Solver. The software is based on the Method of Moments (MoM), and it employs higher order polynomials as the basis functions for the frequency domain integral equation solver. The higher-order basis functions can significantly reduce the number of unknowns compared with the traditional piece-wise basis functions, e.g., Rao-Wiltion-Glisson triangular patch basis functions (RWGs).
