Abstract

top
The equations of physics are mathematical models consisting of geometric objects and relationships between then. There are many methods to discretize equations, but few maintain the physical nature of objects that constitute them. To respect the geometrical nature elements of physics, it is necessary to change the point of view and using differential geometry, including the numerical study. We propose to construct discrete differential forms using B-splines and a formulation discrete for different operators acting on differential forms. Finally, we apply this theory on the Maxwell equations.
