FMPS (Fast Multi-Particle Scattering) Software
A variety of problems in applied physics and engineering require the solution of Maxwell's equations in complex micro-structured materials. FMPS combines high-order accurate integral equation methods with classical multiple scattering theory. It assumes only that the material consists of an isotropic background in which are dispersed a large number of micro- or nano-scale metallic or dielectric inclusions.There are two steps involved in using FMPS. First, one must construct the scattering matrix for a specific inclusion geometry. This is done using Muller's integral equation (for dielectrics).
The second solver uses the precomputed scattering matrix to compute the effect of multiple scattering from a collection of arbitrarily ordered dielectric inclusions.
FMPS is a MATLAB-based tool which uses compiled Fortran-based solvers that have been packaged for MATLAB running in 32-bit Windows, 64-bit Windows, 32-bit Mac OSX, and 64-bit Linux environments. The ZIP file contains release notes, but not a complete manual at this stage.
