Project Description

EffECT is a two-year project funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions. The project develops advanced Discrete de Rham numerical methods on polyhedral meshes, with applications to electromagnetic simulations and eddy current testing.

The project has two main goals:

• To develop new mathematical and numerical tools for the analysis of Discrete de Rham numerical schemes.
• To apply these tools to real-world eddy current testing configurations.

The central idea is to integrate the mathematical capabilities of DDR methods, in particular their support for general polyhedral meshes and high-order polynomial approximations, into eddy-current models.
