=== A Overview of 3D Method Of Moments Primer ===

In a 3D MoM simulation, the currents or fields on the surface of a structure are the unknowns of the problem. The given structure is immersed in the free space. These The unknown currents or fields are discretized as a collection of elementary currents or fields with small finite spatial extents. Such elementary currents or fields are called basis functions. They obviously have a vectorial nature and must satisfy [[Maxwell's Equations|Maxwell's equations]] and relevant boundary conditions individually. The actual currents or fields on the surface of the given structure (the solution of the problem) are expressed as a superposition of these elementary currents or fields with initially unknown amplitudes. Through the MoM solution, you find these unknown amplitudes, from which you can then calculate the currents or fields everywhere in the structure.

[[EM.Cube]]’s [[MoM3D Module|MoM3D module]] Libera offers two distinct 3D MoM simulation engineengines. The first one is a Wire MoM solver that , which is based on Pocklington's integral equation. This solver can be used to simulate wireframe models of metallic structures. This solver and is particularly useful for modeling wire-type antennas and arrays. The second engine features a powerful surface Surface MoM solver. It can model metallic surfaces and solids as well as solid dielectric objects. The Surface MoM solver uses a surface integral equation formulation of [[Maxwell's Equations|Maxwell's equations]]. In particular, it uses an electric field integral equation (EFIE), magnetic field integral equation (MFIE), or combined field integral equation (CFIE) for modeling PEC regions. For the case modeling of solid the dielectric objectsregions of the physical structure , the so-called Poggio-Miller-Cheng-Wu-Tsang (PMCHWT) technique is utilized, in which equivalent electric and magnetic currents are assumed on the surface of the dielectric object to formulate the interior and exterior boundary value problems.
