Codes for electromagnetic scattering by cylinders

Codes for electromagnetic scattering by cylinders – this article list codes for electromagnetic scattering by a cylinder.

Majority of existing codes for calculation of electromagnetic scattering by a single cylinder are based on Mie theory, which is an analytical solution of Maxwell's equations in terms of infinite series.[1]

Classification

The compilation contains information about the electromagnetic scattering by cylindrical particles, relevant links, and applications.[2]
